Hilding Köhler

Hilding Köhler (1888–1982) was a professor of meteorology at the University of Uppsala in Uppsala, Sweden who performed groundbreaking research in cloud physics. In particular, he performed both theoretical and experimental studies on the growth and condensation of water droplets on hygroscopic nuclei. One important and often quoted result of his theoretical research resulted in the well-known Köhler curve. He also made important contributions to theoretical studies on turbulence in the atmosphere.
