3. Climate scientists awarded 2021 Nobel Prize for Physics
The 2021 Nobel Prize for Physics was awarded to pioneering climate scientists who laid the foundations for the understanding of the role of human activities and greenhouse gases in climate change.
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences cited American Japanese professor Syukuro Manabe (Princeton University, U.S.) and German professor Klaus Hasselmann (Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, Germany), for "the physical modelling of Earth's climate, quantifying variability and reliably predicting global warming."
They shared the prize with Italian theoretical physicist Giorgio Parisi (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy) "for the discovery of the interplay of disorder and fluctuations in physical systems from atomic to planetary scales."
