Obituary: Edward N. Lorenz (1917–2008)
Edward Ott1
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. A modest, unassuming and kind man, his personal qualities and intellectual insights had been a constant feature in the field of meteorology for more than 60 years; he co-authored his last paper just weeks before his death.
- Edward Ott is in the Departments of Physics, and of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland 20742, USA.
