Dr Geoffrey Moore was awarded the AAM based on his outstanding King penguin research program on Heard Island in the winter program of 1992. The level of his success in studying all the main ecological attributes of King penguins throughout an unbroken 13-month field season is unmatched by any other work on this species.
