Modify Solar Energy
To create a major climate
change, scientists would have to
modify substantially the tremend-
GUS amount of solar energy re-
ceived continually by the earth.
About a third Of this solar radi-
alton is lost by reflection from
clouds and earth. Most Of the re-
mainder is absorbed and later re-
turned to space in long waves
emitted by the surface, atmosphere,
and clouds. In time, the incoming
and outgoing radiation balance, but
local imbalances provide the ener-
gy for wind and weather systems.
To modify this radiation, a
climatologist recently suggested
touching off nuclear explosions in
the Arctic. Theoretically, the mas
sive ice clouds would prevent
ground radiation from escaping
into space and reflect it downward,
raising the temperature. Like a
giant greenhouse, the clouds would
allow incoming solar radiation to
pass through.
The results. however, would be
costly, temporary, and somewhat
unpredictab,e. Such experiments
are tempting to think about, but
a leading climatologist recently adj
vised "a little more humility in the
face of the overwhelming powers
of nature"

CONTROL WEATHER
OBJECT OF INTENSE
STUDY BY TEcHNlclAllS

WASHINGTON - Climatolo-
gists are working toward the day
when they can do something about
the weather.
Already it is possible to change
the trend Of weather in limited
areas, or "microclimates," the Ma
tional Geographic Society says.
Small, but measurable, effects on
climate are induced by creating
new lakes, changing river courses,
planting forests, and artificially
|suppressing evaporation.
Cities are among the greatest
man-made influences on micro
climates. The downtown area of a
city and nearby rural areas often
have startling differences in
weather.
Rains More In City
Compared with its rural neigh
bors, city has 5 to 10 percent
more clouds and precipitation.
Temperatures average / to 2 de-
|grees higher. The windspeed in a
city is 20 to 80 percent less than in
the surrounding country, and the
relative humidity is 8 to 10 per-
cent lower.
Changing climate on a large
scale would call for grandiose mea-
sures, however. An engineer re-
Gently proposed building a dam
across the Boring Strait and pump
ing the Arctic Ocean into the Paci-
fic. The idea was to stimulate a
warming flow from the Atlantic in
to the Arctic basin.
The Sproposal was quickly dis
missed when climatologists warned
that the results probably would be
just the opposite Of those intended.
AS side effect, the Cobb Desert
might creep northward.

stated that space is tour new

we should be first in its conquest.
President Kennedy's remarks were

imperiled, not by the heat of re-
entry, but by a watery tomb Of

EAST HYDE SCHOOL SYSTEM
PUTS EMPHASIS ON SCIENCE

The East Hyde School system has
every intention Of keeping up with
the space age and points to It's ex-
|penditure of $1,000 for science ma
terial as proof of the fact.
Principal Allen d. Bucklew, in
listing the expenses for science
equipment at Engelhard, says that
the school effort in science would
not have been possible without the
"wholehearted cooperation and sup
port of the local P.T.A. which has
worked SO enthusiastically for our
school,"
The new equipment includes four
sparkling new microscopes, of 10x
and 40x illumination, two new
scales, and science kits for all stu
dents from the first through the
sixth grade. The science kits, which
are a delight to instructors at the
school, enable students to perform
102 scientific experiments by them
selves without the purchase Of adj
ditional materials.
