Date | 28 March 2019 |
Description | Certificate endorsing election of Peter Haynes as a Fellow of the Royal Society, including personal details of the elected Fellow and citing the reasons for election and names of proposers. Signed by the Executive Director of the Royal Society, Julie Maxton. |
Citation | Distinguished for his penetrating and deeply insightful analyses of the fluid dynamics of the atmosphere and oceans and the implications for mixing and chemical transport. He has been creative in building bridges between sophisticated theory and observational data. He has been proactive in highly successful collaborations between atmospheric dynamicists, chemists, and radiation experts, dealing with complex processes whose interplay is crucial to understanding, for instance, stratospheric ozone depletion and its natural and anthropogenic causes. His work on Rossby wave critical layers, in particular, profoundly changed our understanding of the role of these waves in the general circulation of the atmosphere. |
