James C. McWilliams
James C. McWilliams is a professor at the UCLA Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics and Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences.
== Early life ==
McWilliams was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and attended high school in Tulsa. He was primarily drawn to mathematics in his early years, but it was not until college that he began his studies and research in science. McWilliams received a B.S. in Applied Mathematics from Caltech in 1968. In 1969 and 1971, he received a M.S. and Ph.D respectively from Harvard University. He has stated that he enjoyed mathematics because it was fun, but science has real targets. At the time, professors around him were working with a variety of fluid dynamics, so he felt that his calling to science was in the study of oceanic, atmospheric, and astrophysical flows.〔Email Interview conducted on 1st February 2010〕
McWilliams held a Research Fellowship in Geophysical Fluid Dynamics at Harvard from 1971-1974 and afterwards worked in the Oceanography Section at NCAR where he became a Senior Scientist in 1980. In 1994, while still retaining part-time appointment at NCAR, he began his work at UCLA where he became the Louis B. Slichter Professor of Earth Sciences in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences and the Institute for Geophysics and Planetary Physics. In 2002, McWilliams was elected to the National Academy of Sciences. Today, he continues his career in academia at UCLA.〔http://www.atmos.ucla.edu/~jcm/bio.htm〕
