Syukuro Manabe, 90, and Klaus Hasselmann, 89, were recognised for their contributions to "physical modelling of Earth's climate, measuring variability, and accurately anticipating global warming."
Giorgio Parisi, 73, received the second part of the prize for “discovering the interaction of disorder and fluctuations in physical systems from atomic to planetary scales.”
Manabe and Hasselmann "layed the cornerstone of our knowledge of the Earth's climate and how mankind impacts it," according to the panel.
