The William Gaskell Medal was awarded annually by the Royal Meteorological Society to a scientist who has distinguished himself in the field of experimental meteorology. The medal was named in honour of Dr William Gaskell, a meteorologist who was killed along with 3 colleagues on a research flight to study microphysical and electrical properties in supercooled clouds on 2 March 1980. It is funded by the Desert Research Institute, Reno, Nevada and the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST).
