Access through your institution Buy or subscribe Bert Bolin was born on 15 May 1925 in Nyköping, Sweden, and arrived at his later interest in global biogeochemical cycles, and the carbon
cycle in particular, via an early career in atmospheric dynamics and numerical weather prediction — one of the most quickly expanding fields during the 1950s. Having studied physics and
mathematics at the University of Uppsala, Bolin benefited from Carl-Gustaf Rossby's decision to reverse the brain drain and build up the International Meteorological Institute in
Stockholm after 22 years in the US: Bolin obtained his MSc in the lively atmosphere of the newly founded institute. After spending a year in the US, he worked on his PhD in Stockholm, which
he obtained in 1956. The photo shows him at his PhD defense. This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access through your institution Subscribe
