Wikipedia description:
Louis Lliboutry (19 February 1922 – 21 October 2007) was a Spanish-born French glaciologist, geophysicist, university professor and mountaineer. While in Chile in the early 1950s, he analysed and explained the formation of snow penitents in the Andes, which marked his first contribution to glaciology. He founded in Grenoble in 1958 the Laboratoire de glaciologie et géophysique de l'environnement and headed it for 25 years; he also set up at that period a pioneering syllabus in geophysics. His contributions to mechanics of viscous media (such as ice and the Earth's mantle) and to geodynamics are internationally acknowledged.
