Carl-Gustaf Arvid Rossby was a renowned meteorologist who made significant contributions to the field by explaining atmospheric motions using fluid mechanics. He identified and defined the jet stream and long waves in the westerlies, which are now known as Rossby waves. Rossby’s work revolutionized the understanding of atmospheric dynamics, laying the foundation for modern meteorology. His contributions remain highly influential in meteorology, impacting weather forecasting and atmospheric science.
