Turbulence (and not only): The Legacy of Vincenzo Carbone, 2025 Richardson Medal
One year ago, Vincenzo Carbone left us. Vincenzo was a leading scientist in nonlinear geophysics, turbulence, and complex systems, influencing fluid and plasma physics, weather and space weather, solar–terrestrial relations, and climate dynamics. Yet for those who worked closely with him, his legacy goes well beyond his remarkable scientific achievements. Scientific Contributions and Impact Over more than three decades, Vincenzo provided fundamental new concepts and contributions for the characterization of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence and intermittency, laying the foundation for the …
