Milutin Milankovitch |
1930
Serbian geophysicist Milutin Milankovitch
proposed that changes in the eccentricity of Earth’s orbit cause climate
change, including ice ages.
Ilmuan Geofisika asal Serbia, Milutin Milankovitch, menemukan bahwa perubahan orbit Bumi adalah akibat dari perubahan iklim, termasuk pada zaman es.
William Jackson Humphreys |
1932
Meteorologist W.J.Humphreys elaborated
the conditions for a return to an ice ages. He believed that an increase in
debris in the atmosphere and the reflection on sunlight by ice and snow might
return Earth to an ice age.
Ahli Meteorologi, W.J. Humphreys menguraikan kembali kondisi pada saat zaman es. Hasil penelitiannya menyebutkan bahwa pada waktu jaman es, peningkatan sampah di atmosfer dan refleksi dari sinar matahari pada es dan salju akan terpantulkan kembali ke bumi.
George Simpson |
1937
Royal meteorological society president
George Simpson posted that an increase in solar radiation might cause an ice
age. By warming the poles more than high altitudes, the increase in solar
radiaton would intensify the circulation of the atmosphere, carrying moisture
to high latitudes where it would fall as snow. If enough snow accumulated a new
ice age would ensure.
Guy Stewart Callendar |
1938
Amateur scientist G.S.Callendar recorded
an increase in temperatures in the Artic and posited the greenhouse effect as
the cause.
Ilmuwan amatir, G.S. Callendar mencatat peningkatan suhu di samudra artik (kutub utara) merupakan akibat dari Efek Rumah Kaca.
1939
Simpson announced that the atmosphere
seems to keep the climate nearly constant by regulating the amount of clouds.
The more clouds, the lower the temperature, and the fewer clouds, the warmer
the temperature.
George Simpson melanjutkan penelitiannya dan mengatakan bahwa fungsi utama dari atmosfer adalah menjaga iklim untuk selalu konstan dengan mengatur jumlah awan. Semakin banyak awan, maka semakin rendah suhu bumi, semakin sedikit awan, maka akan semakin hangat suhu bumi.
