Jeanloz has chaired the National Research Council Board on Earth Sciences and Resources.[6] He is a co-editor of the Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences[7] and serves on the Board of Directors of Annual Reviews.[8]

Jeanloz is also active in connecting science and policy in areas including international policy, resources and the environment, and science education.[4][9] He has been particularly prominent in informing national and international security and nuclear weapons policy,[9] chairing the Committee on International Security and Arms Control at the National Academy of Sciences.[10] In 2009 he received the Leo Szilard Lectureship Award from the American Physical Society for "contributions to development of sound public policy for nuclear weapons management and nuclear non-proliferation."[3] Jeanloz became an Annenberg Distinguished Visiting Fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution in 2012.[11]
