Why Is Joseph Smagorinsky Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Joseph Smagorinsky was an American meteorologist and the first director of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory . Early life Joseph Smagorinsky was born to Nathan Smagorinsky and Dina Azaroff. His parents were from Gomel, Belarus, which they fled during the life-threatening pogroms of the early 20th century. Nathan and Dina bore three sons in Gomel: Jacob , Samuel , and David . In 1913, Nathan emigrated from the coast of Finland, passing through Ellis Island and settling on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Nathan at first was a house painter. Then, with the help of a relative, he opened a paint store. In 1916, with the business established, Dina, Sam, and David emigrated by going to Murmansk and then southward along the Norwegian coast to Christiana and boarding a boat to New York where they joined Nathan. They had two other children: Hillel and Joseph .
