While earlier editions of the Frontiers of Knowledge Awards have distinguished contributions to climate change science from the realms of modelling, physics or economics, this year s prize recognizes the contribution of the social sciences. Specifically, the committee has selected three researchers who have pioneered the study of how social conditions and culture shape our vulnerability to climate change and our ability to adapt, in the words of the award citation.
