The inventor of the surf forecast, Walter Munk, turned 100 yesterday on October 18. He pioneered a method to predict ocean conditions that was used to plan the D-Day landings at Normandy and is still used today to create the surf forecast. This fascinating man is still an active researcher! Check out his story here.“After more than eight decades of ocean science, Munk shows no signs of slowing down. He is still hard at work, researching and speaking at international conferences. As the worldwide oceanographic community prepares to celebrate his centenary, Munk’s enthusiasm for discovery has not dimmed.”
