The '''American Geophysical Union''' (AGU) is an international non-profit scientific association with over 50,000 members. Established in 1919 as a committee within the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences, AGU was independently incorporated in 1972.

Since its founding, AGU is dedicated to furthering the sciences of geophysics through the individual efforts of its members and in cooperation with other national and international scientific organizations. These goals are met through publishing scientific journals and other technical publications (including ''Eos'', a weekly newspaper, and the ''Journal of Geophysical Research''<ref>The page of the [http://www.agu.org/journals/jgr/ Journal of Geophysical Research] on the AGU's website</ref>), sponsoring scientific meetings of various sizes throughout the year and a variety of other educational and scientific activities. It also honors outstanding contributions to the advancement of the geophysical sciences, through awards and medals<ref>The page dedicated to [http://www.agu.org/about/honors/union/ union medals and awards] on the AGU's website</ref>.
