In 1956, Norman Phillips developed a mathematical model which could realistically depict monthly and seasonal patterns in the troposphere, which became the first successful General circulation model of climate.[1] He was awarded a Benjamin Franklin Medal (Franklin Institute) in 2003. Phillips was born in 1923.[1]
