Keith Browning

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Keith Browning is a British meteorologist who worked at Imperial College London, the Met Office and University of Reading department of meteorology. His work with Frank Ludlam on the supercell thunderstorm at Wokingham, UK in 1962 was the first detailed study of such a storm. His well-regarded research covered many areas of mesoscale meteorology including developing the theory of the Sting jet. Arguably his greatest talent is his intuitive understanding of complex three-dimensional meteorological processes which he has described more simply using conceptual models.
