More about the book

Focusing on Klaus Hasselmann's groundbreaking contributions to climate science and ocean wave research, this book compiles and contextualizes his original articles from the 1970s and 1980s, many of which are rare today. It highlights his role as the founding Director of the Max Planck Institute of Meteorology and his pivotal influence on understanding anthropogenic climate change and its implications for public policy. Written by his colleagues, the work assesses the lasting impact of Hasselmann's achievements on contemporary scientific knowledge and practices.
