Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Sagan, Carl and R.P. Turco, O.B. Toon, T.P. Ackerman, J.B. Pollack. "Nuclear Winter: Global Consequences of Multiple Nuclear Explosions", in "Science", 23 December 1983, volume 222 no. 4630, pp 1283-1292 in the full issue, with 88 footnotes/notes. The paper (also referred to as "TTAPS" for the first letter of the authors' surnames), is the first public scientific airing of long-term global consequences of nuclear warfare, and is the first appearance of the term "nuclear winter" in a scientific journal. There was an earlier (October 30, 1983, "Would Nuclear War be the End of the World?") much truncated and entirely popular excursion into "nuclear winter" in an issue of the omnipresent Sunday entertainment/puff magazine "Parade". In this unusual piece for "Parade" Sagan credits Turco with creating the term "Nuclear Winter". Two months later Sagan et al told a much fuller story in the 1983 issue of "Science" (the issue above), as well as in subsequent papers in "Science" in 1985 and 1990 (offered below). [++] Also in this 1983 issue: "Long-Term biological Consequences of Nuclear War" with this article on pages 1293-1300, by Sagan et al. [++] (2) Singer, S. F. "On Nuclear Winter", in Science, 25 January 1985, vol 267 no. 4685, a one-page double-column letter to the editor. Another letter addresses TTAPS by Cresson Kearny on pp 356-358, which is followed by a response by Sagan and the rest of TTAPS on 358-362. [++] (3) Turco, R.P. With O.B. Toon, T.P. Ackerman, J.B. Pollack, and Carl Sagan, "Climate and Smoke: an Appraisal of Nuclear Winter", in "Science", 12 January 1990, vol 247, pp 166-176, with 136 references/notes. VG copy, though there are a few check marks on articles titles made in pen in the table of contents. [++] All three papers are in the original wrappers; they each have two stickers on the front wrapper. All three issues are a basic VG condition and probably a little better than that. [++] Nuclear winter is the result of a full-on war between the U.S. And Russia (and whoever else joins the fray) where the smoke and soot (black carbon) and ejecta from burning and smoldering cities and forests and whatever else would burn (which is virtually everything) makes its way into the stratosphere, limiting sunlight, and causing a decades-long winter that would lower global temperatures and threaten almost all life on Earth.
