Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In June 1991, Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines awoke from a 500-year slumber with terrifying violence. It was the second-largest volcanic eruption of the 20th century. While the immediate localized destruction was devastating, the true scientific ma…rvel of Pinatubo happened high above the clouds, fundamentally altering the entire planet's atmosphere.The eruption injected a staggering 20 million tons of sulfur dioxide directly into the stratosphere. These gases rapidly oxidized into microscopic aerosol droplets, forming a global chemical shield that actively reflected the sun's radiation back into space. This highly technical reference book explores how this single geological event caused the entire Earth's average temperature to drop by roughly 1°F (0.6°C) for nearly two years.We examine how meteorologists and atmospheric scientists used the Pinatubo aerosols as a perfectly timed, real-world laboratory. The data gathered from the cooling effect flawlessly validated early computer climate models and remains the foundational argument for modern geoengineering proposals regarding artificial solar radiation management.Understand the thermostat of the planet. A rigorous exploration of how a massive volcanic explosion accidentally proved the mechanics of global climate change.
