Dear colleagues,

We are happy to announce the 2021 contest for the international space
weather and space climate medals. The new medal recipients will be
announced in a medal ceremony at the European Space Weather Week, October 25

a dedicated session.

Please, find all information on how to nominate a colleague at

The deadline for the nominations is *September, 5th 2021.*

All three prizes are prestigious recognitions of recipients’ major
contributions in the field of space weather. Medal recipients’ work must
have been documented in peer review journals or book chapters, or must be a
technological contribution that has led to a fully implemented new space
weather capability. Medal recipients’ work must be relevant to space
weather and/or space climate. The work must also be internationally
recognized.

In addition to the above common criteria, there are the following specific
requirements for each of the three medals:
The Kristian Birkeland Medal for Space Weather and Space Climate:

The recipient of the Kristian Birkeland Medal must have demonstrated a
unique ability to combine basic and applied research to develop useful
space weather products that are being used outside the research community,
and/or across scientific research disciplines. The work must have led to a
better physical comprehension of the solar-terrestrial phenomena related to
space weather, to a drastic improvement of space weather modeling, or to a
new generation of instruments.
The Baron Marcel Nicolet Medal for Space Weather and Space Climate:

The recipient of the Baron Marcel Nicolet Medal must have demonstrated a
unique ability to bind the space weather community in a spirit of peace and
friendship, to educate within the space weather community, to go also
beyond the space weather research community and address larger audiences,
and/or to serve the space weather.
The Alexander Chizhevsky Medal for Space Weather and Space Climate:

The Alexander Chizhevsky Medal is awarded to an early career scientist in
recognition of outstanding achievements in space weather with an innovative
approach.  The nominee must be an early career scientist within 8 years of
receiving their Ph.D. at the time of nomination.   The period may be
