Abstract
We review the work of Klaus Hasselmann, one of three recipients of the Nobel Prize in Physics 2021, from the perspective of computational science and engineering (CSE). In addition to highlighting Hasselmann’s extensive contributions to climate science, we shine a light on his groundbreaking work in ocean surface wave dynamics and prediction, which preceded his career in climate research. Early on, Hasselmann also gained a strong interest in elementary particle physics, which led him to develop, in his spare time, a unified theory of particles and fields, and which we outline here. With this review we hope to entice computational scientists to delve deeper into Hasselmann’s extraordinarily broad work at the interface of climate physics, mathematics, and scientific computing, and to appreciate the central role that CSE continues to play in climate research.
