EMS Silver Medal

The EMS Silver Medal is presented annually to a person that has made distinguished contributions to the development of meteorology in Europe.

The EMS Silver Medal was established in 2008 to honour important contributions to the development of meteorology in Europe. The Award is presented annually. Candidates for the EMS Silver Medal can be nominated by EMS Member Societies and Associate Members, EMS Committees and Project Teams, and EMS Council representatives. The EMS Awards Committee, consisting of senior members of meteorological institutions in Europe, makes recommendations to the EMS Council for a final decision.

The Silver Medal Ceremony is normally held during the EMS Annual Meeting and the Laureate is invited to give a “Silver Medal Lecture”.
