Dear Colleagues,

We are happy to announce the 2024 contest for the three International Space Weather and Space Climate Medals:

–The Kristian Birkeland Medal for Space Weather and Space Climate
–The Baron Marcel Nicolet Medal for Space Weather and Space Climate
–The Alexander Chizhevsky Medal for Space Weather and Space Climate

The medal recipients will be announced during the Medal Ceremony on 4th November 2024 at the European Space Weather Week in Coimbra (Portugal). Each winner will be invited to give a 20-minute lecture about his/her research in a dedicated session on the following day.

All three prizes are prestigious recognitions of the recipients’ major contributions in the field of Space Weather and Space Climate. Medal recipients’ achievements must have been documented via publications in peer-reviewed journals or book chapters, or must be technological contributions that have led to a fully implemented and documented new Space Weather or Space Climate capability. Medal recipients’ work must be internationally recognized in the field of Space Weather and/or Space Climate.
In addition to the above common criteria, there are the following specific requirements for each of the three medals, which you can find here.
