George Aubourne Clarke Шаблон:Post-nominals (1879 – 13 February 1949) was a Scottish meteorologist, best known for his photographs of cloud types.[1]

From 1903 to 1943, he was the metereological observer at the Cromwell Tower Observatory at the University of Aberdeen.[2] While there he made photographs of clouds, which were published in a book that became the standard reference for metereologists and the military.[3]

He was awarded the first Hood medal from the Royal Photographic Society in 1933[4] for his work as a photographer.

He retired in 1947 and died two years later, aged 69.[5][1]
