Edward Norton Lorenz war ein US-amerikanischer Mathematiker und Meteorologe. Er gilt als ein Wegbereiter der Chaostheorie und prägte die Bezeichnung Schmetterlingseffekt für die Empfindlichkeit bezüglich der Anfangsbedingungen in dynamischen Systemen.
Edward Norton Lorenz (May 23, 1917 – April 16, 2008) was an American mathematician and meteorologist who established the theoretical basis of weather and climate predictability, as well as the basis for computer-aided atmospheric physics and meteorology.
Der Begriff Schmetterlingseffekt geht auf den US-amerikanischen Meteorologen Edward N. Lorenz zurück, der 1972 vor der American Association for the Advancement of Science einen Vortrag mit dem provokanten Titel hielt Predictability: Does the Flap of a Butterfly’s Wings in Brazil set off a Tornado in Texas?
Ed Lorenz, a founder of chaos theory, also developed revolutionary ideas about the energetics of stratified, rotating fluids and made important contributions to the understanding of atmospheric dynamics and weather prediction. He was on the faculty of MIT from 1955 to his retirement in 1988.
Welcome to the Lorenz Center at MIT. Climate may or may not be deterministic. We shall probably never know for sure, but as further mathematical theory is developed, and as more realistic models are constructed, we may become more and more confident of our opinions. — Edward Lorenz, “Climate determinism” (1968)
14. Mai 2008 · Edward Norton Lorenz, whose pioneering studies of atmospheric dynamics led to his accidental discovery of chaos theory, died of cancer at his home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, on 16 April.
22. Mai 2017 · Der Begriff stammt von Edward Lorenz, dem Wegbereiter der Chaostheorie. Flattert ein Schmetterling in Brasilien, beeinflusst er dadurch die Atmosphäre und kann damit zu einem Wirbelsturm in Texas beitragen: Dieses Phänomen ist als Schmetterlingseffekt bekannt.
Chaos at 50. Fifty years have passed since Edward Lorenz published his discovery of the surprising behavior we now know as chaos. With a simple, three-equation weather model, Lorenz demonstrated that even fully deterministic systems can behave in ways that are intrinsically unpredictable.
17. Apr. 2008 · Edward N. Lorenz, a meteorologist who tried to predict the weather with computers but instead gave rise to the modern field of chaos theory, died Wednesday at his home in Cambridge, Mass. He was...
A meteorologist who established the theoretical basis of weather and climate predictability, as well as the basis for computer-aided atmospheric physics and meteorology. He made his boldest scientific achievement in discovering.
