Synopsis
The Atmospheric Radiation Research book offers unique insights into a topic first suggested in 1891 by Professor Cleveland Abbe of the U.S. Weather Bureau to its author. This research, begun in the last decade of the 19th century, examined the complexities of measuring and understanding atmospheric radiation and absorption of heat by the Earth's atmosphere. Utilizing both pre-existing and innovative experimental setups, the author performed a series of experiments to determine the absolute radiation in calories from a unit mass of gas. The data presented in this book is particularly significant because it was collected at various air pressures, providing valuable insights into the relationship between pressure and the radiative power of atmospheric gases. The experiments utilized involved measuring the radiation from heated air through diaphragmed tubes, allowing for precise control and variation in the parameters being studied. The author's work not only clarifies prior assumptions about radiation and atmospheric physics, but also raises new questions for future investigators to explore.
