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.
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.
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.

10 de nov. de 2020 · Shizuo Ishiguro, the father of Nobel Prize-winning British novelist Kazuo Ishiguro, studied various sea-level changes, such as seiche, also known as abiki in the Nagasaki dialect, and the 1953...
14 de dic. de 2018 · 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.
