Медаль Чарльза Дулиттла Валькота (англ. Charles Doolittle Walcott Medal) — научная награда Национальной академии наук США за выдающиеся достижения в области изучения докембрийского и кембрийского геологического периода.
История
Награда была учреждена в 1934 году на средства Мэри Во Валькот в честь американского палеонтолога Чарльза Дулиттла Валькота (1850−1927), и присуждается раз в пять лет.
