George Hadley ( February 12, 1685 – June 28, 1768) was an English lawyer and amateur meteorologist who proposed the atmospheric mechanism by which the Trade Winds are sustained. As a key factor in ensuring that European sailing vessels reached North American shores, understanding the Trade Winds was as important in Hadley's day as the understanding of the solar wind and other extraterrestrial phenomena is to contemporary scientists considering manned lunar and Martian expeditions. Hadley was intrigued by the fact that winds which should by all rights have blown straight north had a pronounced westerly flow, and it was this mystery he set out to solve. ...more on Wikipedia about "George Hadley"

Arguably his greatest talent was his intuitive understanding of complex three-dimensional meteorological processes which he described more simply using conceptual models. ...more on Wikipedia about "Keith Browning"
