Seiche is a house, on the bluff overlooking the ocean. This is a very partial experience of the house and its owner, the noted Oceanographer, Walter Munk. Walter Munk dedicated his life to the study of the oceans, its currents and temperatures. Along with Roger Revelle and Charles David Keeling, he helped elevate Scripps to a preeminent position in Climate Science. Now the Walter Munk Global Ocean Think Tank will continue the work to bring colleagues, leaders, and students together to tackle the enormous challenges of our time.

As we face the consequences of climate change, it may surprise some to learn just how long scientists—and denialists—have been talking about this problem. On this episode, Dr. Patrick Spero talks with two leading scientists and APS Members, Dr. Walter Munk and Dr. Charles Kennel, about the oceans and climate change. They explore how their interest in climate science grew out of work in oceanography (in Dr. Munk’s case going back to World War Two), reflect on the state of the oceans, climate, and what it all means for policymakers today. Dr. Walter Munk, described as the “Einstein of the oceans,” was professor emeritus of geophysics and held the Secretary of the Navy/Chief of Naval Operations Oceanography Chair at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego. He gave a talk at the APS in April 2013 titled, “Corrigendum: Where the Swell Begins.” Dr. Charles Kennel is Distinguished Professor, Vice-Chancellor, and Director emeritus at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego. He gave a talk at the APS in April 2014 titled, “The Hiatus in Global Warming.” Full Recording of Dr. Munk’s talk at the April 2013 APS Meeting Full Recording of Dr. Kennel’s talk at the April 2014 APS Meeting Walter Munk, “The Perfect Storm,” Proceedings of the American Philosophical Society, Vol. 157, No. 4 (December 2013): 369-392.

Walter Munk talks about his life and career in marine science with Carl Wunsch for the Annual Review of Marine Science.
