Abstract:
?爱德华·洛伦茨(EdwardN.Lorenz)生前是美国麻省理工学院气象学教授,他于1963年发表在JournaloftheAtmosphericScience上的论文“Deterministicnonperiodicflow”,被誉为混沌理论研究的里程碑和开山之作,这一研究引发了自然科学的一场革命.该论文发表后的十年里几乎没有人关注和引用,但在随后几十年里却引起人们的广泛注意.除此之外,洛伦茨在大气科学的多个方面都做出了奠基性的贡献.由于洛伦茨在对地球流体动力学特别是大尺度大气运动的深刻理解方面的奠基性的贡献(Crafoord奖颁奖词),他于1983年获得首批地球科学Crafoord奖.本文简要介绍洛伦茨教授的生平、学习与科研工作经历、发表论文情况以及所取得的成就,希望从中得到一些对中国科学家有用的启示和感悟.
