Professor Sir Brian John Hoskins, CBE FRS, (born 17 May 1945) is a British dynamical meteorologist and climatologist based at the Imperial College London and the University of Reading. A mathematician by training, his research has focused on understanding atmospheric motion from the scale of fronts to that of the Earth, using a range of theoretical and numerical models. He is perhaps best known for his work on the mathematical theory of extratropical cyclones and frontogenesis, particularly through the use of potential vorticity. He has also produced research across many areas of meteorology, including the Indian monsoon and global warming, recently contributing to the Stern review and the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report.

  • Sir Brian Hoskins, född 17 maj 1945, är professor i dynamisk meteorologi vid universitetet i Reading. Hoskins studerade matematik men övergick efter examen till forskning i dynamisk meteorologi. Hans forskning har till stor del handlat om atmosfärens storskaliga strömning men också om väderfronter och fuktprocesser. Hoskins har lagt fram flera matematiska teorier som beskriver frontogenes och det vill säga bildandet av väderfronter och cykloner. Han har dessutom undersökt den indiska monsunen samt global uppvärmning och han var en av författarna bakom IPCCs fjärde rapport från 2007. Hoskins belönades 1988 med amerikanska meteorologisamfundets finaste utmärkelse Carl-Gustaf Rossby-medaljen. (sv)
