Local Influences Hide and
Counterfeit the
Greater.

But the atmosphere is so deli
cate in its adjustments, and so
subject to local influences which
tend to mask the greater and more
fundamental effects, that extreme
care has to be taken TO disentan-
gle the complicated facts. Local
and general absorption of solar
radiations by the air must be
studied and allowed for, and some
of the instruments used by the
Investigators excel in ingenuity
and sensitiveness any of the Won
derful implements Of destruction
employed in war. For instance, the
bolometer used to detect differ
ences of radiant energy can meas
ure down to- the hundred-thou-
sandth of a degree centigrade.
The great difficulty is to CORE
late the solar changes with corre-
spending general changes in the
temperature on the earth, since
such changes are masked by many
known that the radiation Of the
sun sometimes gains or loses sew
eral per cent in the course of a
circumstances, but 1t IS already
few days or weeks, and periods. OF
unusual cold or heat have thus

Gigantic Forces of the Sur
Alone Can Affect
the Earth.

If the tremendous explosions OF
shells and bombs. and the outpour-
ing of gases into the air, were
magnified a hundred times there
would be no general effect pro-
duced upon the movements or tenn
perature of the atmosphere. The
only thing that can affect the state
of the atmosphere as a whole, that
can send a chill or a gush of heat
over the entire continent, or set
going great movements in the at
mospheric ocean which envelops
the globe, is the sun, acting
through its output of radiant en-
ergy.
Because the variations of this
energy are relatively slight, and
too inconspicuous to be directly
appreciated by the senses Of sight
or feeling, they are ignored by all
except those who have the knowl-
edge and the experimental means

IHTHILE the attention Of the
" whole world is centered
upon war, with its de-
struction of human life
and of the accumulations Of human
labor, a few devoted students OF
science continue uninterruptedly
their efforts to advance knowledge
for the common benefit Of all peo-
pies. An example is afforded by
the recent establishment, by the
Smithsonian Institution. of new
station for the study of the suns
radiation, on the summit of Hump
mountain in North Carolina, at an
elevation of $500 feet.
This station is to cooperate
with the one that has for more
than ten years been in operation
on Mt. Wilson, in California. The
practical object of these studies is
to promote forecasting of the
weather.
This is to be done not by watch
ing clouds, but by measuring
changes in the radiation Of the
sun. Very few persons who are
unfamiliar with science seem to
comprehend what is implied by
the statement of the fact that the
sun is a variable star. If people
in general understood that fact
there would not be so many foolish
speculations about an imaginary
influence of the war operations in
Europe upon the state of the
weather all over the world.
The Washington times., 1918-04-03

We must not forget, either, that
all the influences that affect the
weather through solar radiation
are not yet known, or have not
yet been thoroughly investigated.
1t is not simply light and heat vi
brations that the sun sends to the
earth, but there are other forms
of radiant energy whose sole
source is the sun which may have
very great effects not patent to
ordinary observation.
II has been established as a fact
that great electromagnetic dis
turbances arise on the earth CO.
incidently with agitations in the
sun, some of whose effects are Wis
IDLE in the shape of sun spots and
other notable appearances on the
solar surface. And not only these
things, but the output of solar
heat and light are subject to peri
odical variations of intensity.
Some of these variations, as the
Smithsonian observers have dis
covered, are of brief duration, i'm
portant changes taking place in
the course of few days, and these
changes are felt by the earth, and
are manifested by waves of heat
and cold,
