The Tooming Award is the ESSL award with the longest tradition. It fosters the idea of pan-European collaboration in the severe storms research community.

The Heino Tooming award was instigated in 2007 in the memory of the outstanding Estonian scientist Prof. Dr. Heino Tooming (see photo to the right). Eligible is any excellent scientific presentation at the European Conference on Severe Storms (ECSS) by a group led by a European scientist and involving collaborators from at least one other European country, fostering in this way collaboration across this continent in the field of severe weather research.
