The Manabe paper was Estimates of future changes of climate due to increase of carbon dioxide concentration in the air ? That's cited as 1971 (four papers in 1971, five in 1972) [1]
Worth mentioning his 1967 paper Thermal Equilibrium of the Atmosphere with a Given Distribution of Relative Humidity [2] was considered "most influential climate science paper of all time" [3] unlike this Dyson essay.
IIRC Dyson built upon the work of Jacob Bronowski [4] whose work on bombing optimisation remained classified until well after his death.
EDIT: FWiW I gave westcort a vote for a good comment- out by a year and incorrect German city are minor mistakes we all make. I chased up the details as the coment piqued my interest about a Manabe paper that wasn't one of the few I'd read, etc.
