 The aqueous vapour constitutes a local dam, by which the temperature at the earth's surface is deepened : the dam, however, finally overflows, and we give to space all that we receive from the sun. The sun raises the vapours of the equatorial ocean ;...  Historical Perspectives on Climate Change - Page 73by James Rodger Fleming - 1998 - 208 pagesLimited preview - About this book
