Context
The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to scientists Syukuro Manabe, Klaus Hasselmann and Giorgio Parisi, whose remarkable work 60 years ago predicted climate change and complex body systems.
Key-highlights
- Syukuro Manabe and Klaus Hasselmann were awarded for their work on "the physical modeling of the Earth's climate, balancing diversity and accurately predicting global warming".
- The second prize was awarded to Giorgio Parisi for "finding the combination of disruption and fluctuations in the body systems from the atomic scale to the center of the planet."
- According to the Nobel Prize Panel, Syukuro Manabe and Klaus Hasselmann laid the “foundation for our knowledge of global climate change and human impact”.
