Climatology wiki

The earliest person to hypothesize climate change may have been the medieval Chinese scientist Shen Kuo (1031–1095). Shen Kuo theorized that climates naturally shifted over an 

enormous span of time, after observing petrified bamboos found underground near Yanzhou (modern day Yan'an, Shaanxi province), a dry-climate area unsuitable for the growth of 

bamboo.Early climate researchers include Edmund Halley, who published a map of the trade winds in 1686 after a voyage to the southern hemisphere. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) 

first mapped the course of the Gulf Stream for use in sending mail from the United States to Europe. Francis Galton (1822-1911) invented the term anticyclone.[2] Helmut Landsberg 

(1906-1985) fostered the use of statistical analysis in climatology, which led to its evolution into a physical science.

Greenhouse effect wiki

The existence of the greenhouse effect was argued for by Joseph Fourier in 1824. The argument and the evidence was further strengthened 

by Claude Pouillet in 1827 and 1838, 

and reasoned from experimental  observations by John Tyndall in 1859, and more fully quantified by Svante Arrhenius in 1896.[5][6]

The hurricane was estimated to have killed between 682 and 800 people, damaged or destroyed over 57,000 homes, and caused property losses estimated at US$306 million ($4.7 billion in 2013) 

It remains the most powerful, costliest and deadliest hurricane in recent New England history,

Svante Arrhenius  19 February 1859 - 2 October 1927  Nobel Prize for Chemistry (1903)

"Although the sea, by absorbing carbonic acid, acts as a regulator of huge capacity, which takes up about five-sixths of the produced carbonic acid, we yet recognize that the slight percentage of carbonic acid in the atmosphere may by the advances of industry be changed to a noticeable degree in the course of a few centuries." (p54)

"Since, now, warm ages have alternated with glacial periods, even after man appeared on the earth, we have to ask ourselves: Is it probable that we shall in the coming geological ages be visited by a new ice period that will drive us from our temperate countries into the hotter climates of Africa? There does not appear to be much ground for such an apprehension. The enormous combustion of coal by our industrial establishments suffices to increase the percentage of carbon dioxide in the air to a perceptible degree." (p61)

"We often hear lamentations that the coal stored up in the earth is wasted by the present generation without any thought of the future, and we are terrified by the awful destruction of life and property which has followed the volcanic eruptions of our days. We may find a kind of consolation in the consideration that here, as in every other case, there is good mixed with the evil. By the influence of the increasing percentage of carbonic acid in the atmosphere, we may hope to enjoy ages with more equable and better climates, especially as regards the colder regions of the earth, ages when the earth will bring forth much more abundant crops than at present, for the benefit of rapidly propagating mankind."

“While other countries mostly subsist upon the annual and ceaseless

income of the harvest, we are drawing more and more upon a capital which yields no annual

interest, but, once turned to light and heat and force, is gone forever into space.”

Jared Diamond discusses the factors that led to the demise of the Norse society in Greenland. He argues that there is no single factor per sé, but a combination of factors that was important here.

Are the Polar Ice Caps Melting? NOAA's Monthly Weather Review of November 1922. 

The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce 

Department yesterday from Consul Ifft, at Bergen, Norway. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers, he declared, all point to a radical change in climate 

conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the  Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met with as far north as 81 degrees 

29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, 

the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared. Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while 

vast shoals of herring and smelts, which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds.

Stability of ice-age ice sheets  J. Weertman JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 66, NO. 11, P. 3783, 1961U.S. Army Cold Regions 

Research and Engineering Laboratory, Corps of Engineers, Hanover, New HampshireThe stability of large ice sheets is investigated by using the 

present-day theory of the flow of ice in glaciers and ice sheets. The type of instability considered is that first mentioned by Bodvarsson. It is concluded that a 

small Arctic ice cap can become unstable and expand into a large ice age ice sheet as a result of moderate changes in the regime of the ice cap. 

A large continental ice sheet can also become unstable and shrink to nothing if the snow accumulation is reduced or the ablation rate increased. 

The results obtained fit well into the Ewing-Donn theory of ice ages. There is the possibility that the inherent instability of ice age ice sheets is in itself sufficient 

to explain both the formation and the disappearance of these ice sheets.

In Canada's wheat belt, a particularly chilly and rainy spring has delayed planting and may well bring a disappointingly small harvest. Rainy Britain, on the other hand, has suffered from uncharacteristic dry spells the past few springs.

Modeling the ice-age climate WL Gates - ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest, 1976

The last great (Wisconsin) ice age has long held the interest of climatologists, geologists, and geographers as the best documented of the several ice ages of the last million years. 

Although local glaciation maximums varied by several thousand years, the time 18,000 B.P. (years before present) is globally representative of this event. 

The changes of flora and fauna that accompanied this ice age are recorded in an extensive paleoclimatic literature, and are supplemented by widespread evidence of changes in 

the physical character of the earth's surface, such as changes in sea level, sea-ice extent, and local orography. From these and other evidence, estimates of the local nature of the 

ice-age climate itself have been derived at selected sites in terms of such variables as the local wind, temperature, or rainfall. Although they are insufficient to portray the overall global 

climatic regime, these estimates indicate that the ice-age climate was substantially different from today's in many regions of the world.

Green Agenda

Proclaiming that “climate change is real” is a nonsensical statement and ignores the Earth’s continual natural warming and cooling cycles. Vikings settled in 

Greenland and raised crops and cattle 1000 years ago, while Britons grew grapes in England. Four hundred years later, Greenland froze and the Vikings starved. 

Europe was gripped in a Little Ice Age. The Thames froze all the way up to London. Another surge in temperatures saw widespread global droughts in the mid-1600s. 

Temperatures plunged again around 1700’s. The globe warmed in 1800-1940, cooled for the next 35 years, then warmed again. The 1940-1975 cooling period 

occurred despite the fact that industrial production and release of CO2 vastly accelerated during this time. This led to political and media scaremongering about 

Global Cooling, and the threat of a new ice age.
