UK National Institute of Oceanography. Shizuo Ishiguro [1] [2] (1920–2007) was a Japanese oceanographer who studied the dynamics of ocean waves using analog computing. He worked at the Nagasaki Marine Observatory from 1948 to 1960 receiving his doctorate from the University of Tokyo in 1958.

The Ishiguro Storm Surge Machine is an analogue computer built by Japanese oceanographer Shizuo Ishiguro. Between 1960 and 1983, it was used to model storm surges in the North Sea by the UK National Institute of Oceanography. It is now on display in the Mathematics Gallery of the Science Museum in London.
20 de nov. de 2017 · Ishiguro es un novelista britanico de origen japonés. Nacido en Nagasaki en 1954, su familia emigró al Inglaterra cuando tenía solo 5 años. Su padre, Shizuo Ishiguro, fue invitado a trabajar en el Instituto Nacional de Oceanografía del Reino Unido, lo que motivó la mudanza de la familia a Guildford, Surrey.
In this article, I will use historical documentation to introduce the work of Dr. Shizuo Ishiguro (1920–2007) during his time at Nagasaki Marine Observatory. Dr. Ishiguro was known for his pioneering work in using analog electronic circuits to identify complex oceanic phenomena and would eventually move from Nagasaki Prefecture to the U.K.
Decades later, in 1949, a 29-year-old Japanese ocean scientist at the Nagasaki Marine Observatory, Shizuo Ishiguro, began working on a project to apply electronics to storm surge prediction, enabling more complex modelling. Four years later, the North Sea Flood struck with its devastating force.
