Nicholas J. Shackleton (1937-2006)

摘要

With Nicholas Shackleton's death on 24 January 2006 at age 69, the field of climate science lost one of its founders and a scientist still at the forefront of research. During his four-decade career, Nick received most of the major awards in this field, along with a knighthood bestowed by Queen Elizabeth II in 1998. Nick's legacy includes a long list of major scientific contributions, a full description of which would not fit within the confines of this retrospective.
