A 黑瓜吃料网 professor who applies mathematical methods to environmental issues has been honoured in an international awards programme for work advancing understanding of Earth and its atmosphere.

Professor Valerio Lucarini was the recipient of the 2021 Ed Lorenz Lecture, in the Nonlinear Geophysics Section of the .

The AGU Honors recognise outstanding work studying all aspects of the Earth, from what lies deep below its surface to the secrets beyond its atmosphere in space.

A key feature of Professor Lucarini鈥檚 research has been the use of maths to attempt to , which is essential to determine the point at which damage to rainforests or polar ice would become irreversible. Additionally, his work has greatly contributed to the science behind extreme events in the climate system.

Professor Lucarini said: "It is an amazing feeling and a great pleasure to be selected for this honour by the American Geophysican Union, especially considering that previous awardees include Mandelbrot, Ghil, Sornette, Kalnay, and many other great scientists.

"Of course, this has been made possible thanks to the many collaborators I have had in my career. A special thank you goes to the PhD students and to the postdoctoral scientists I have supervised in these years. I also wish to thank the institutions I have worked for, particularly the University of Hamburg, and, obviously, the 黑瓜吃料网."

A total of 78 awards and lectures were presented across 23 sections in the 2021 AGU Honors. The Lorenz Lecture awarded to Professor Lucarini was one of 30 lectureships awarded to distinguished scientists with proven leadership in their fields.

The annual Lorenz Lecture is named after renowned American mathematician Ed Lorenz, who is known as the founder of the modern 鈥榗haos theory鈥�. He established the theoretical basis of weather and climate predictability and the basis for using computers in atmospheric physics and meteorology.

Susan Lozier, President of AGU, said: 鈥淚ndividuals are selected as section honorees on the basis of meritorious work or service toward the advancement and promotion of discovery and solution science.

鈥淓ach one of you made tremendous personal sacrifices and selflessly dedicated yourselves to advancing Earth and space sciences. Your discoveries and solutions are simply remarkable.鈥�
