Warm congratulations to Professor Charles Meneveau from @JohnsHopkins for this highest distinction a fluid dynamicists can have. Prof Meneveau has made seminal contributions to the theory of turbulence in general, and atmospheric boundary layer turbulence in particular.

Professor Meneveau receives the #BatchelorPrize for his high-impact fundamental contributions to the study of turbulence and wall-bounded flows, and for bringing insightful and rigorous fluid mechanics to the science of wind turbines and wind farms for the benefit of society.
Charles Meneveau is presented the Batchelor Prize Trophy by Journal of Fluid Mechanics managing editor Anna Simpson on stage at the 26th International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, ICTAM 2024, in Daegu, Korea, with an audience and photographer in the foreground.

Get to know your colleagues and their research in #BulletinAMS! In new BAMS Digital Edition (bit.ly/2NXyAIZ), learn about the meteorological response to a #SolarEclipse, decision support for #DebrisFlow hazards after #wildfires, a new dataset for #ExtremeEvents, & more!
June BAMS cover: The consequences of an extremely cold winter are exemplified by a frozen Niagara Falls. While individual weather events such as ice storms and heat waves can threaten human life, the natural environment, and infrastructure, the seasonal accumulation of weather events may matter more than a single short-term extreme event. The extreme season explorer, an open-access web portal, helps facilitate research of severe events on the seasonal scale.
