Vilhelm Bjerknes (1862–1951) was a Norwegian meteorologist and physicist, best known for his contributions to the field of meteorology and for developing the concepts underlying modern weather forecasting. He played a crucial role in the establishment of dynamical meteorology, which applies the principles of physics to atmospheric phenomena. Bjerknes is particularly renowned for formulating the Bjerknes equations, which describe the dynamics of fluid motion in the atmosphere and ocean.
