“WORLD IS HOTTER, SCIENTIST REPORTS
Temperature Constantly on Rise Since Turn of Century, J.C. Kincer Finds
FAR-FLUNG RECORDS CITED
uowest Natural Reading Given as Minus 94.4°—Highest Is Recorded as 136.4°
The temperature of the world we live in has been constantly rising since the turn of the century, the American Institute of Physics symposium on temperature was told yesterday by Joseph C. Kincer of the United States Weather Bureau, Washington. The symposium closed its three-day convention at the Ho- tel Pennsylvania. |
That there have been major changes in geological climate, Mr. Kincer pointed out, has long been known, but climatologists have considered historic climate as a rather stable thing with short- period variations of considerable magnitude, but without especially significant secular trends covering long periods.
However, he added, since the turn of the century ‘there has been such a persistent trend to higher temperatures, world-wide in scope, as to suggest that the orthodox conception of the stability of climate needs some revision at least.”
Examples of Trend Cited
Mr. Kincer cited several examples of this trend to abnormal warmth in the last two decades. These included Portland, Ore., where seventeen of the last twenty years have been warmer than normal, with 1921 as the warmest year on record; Omaha, Nep., where fifteen of the last twenty years were warmer than normal, with 1931 the warmest year of record; Washington, seven- teen of the last twenty years warmer than normal, with 1921 the warmest year on record, and every year above normal since 1926, and Cape Town, South Africa, with nineteen of the last twenty years warmer than normal, and 1927 the warmest’ on record.
“This trend to higher temperatures,’’ Mr. Kincer said, ‘this been general over the globe. Summaries of monthly records published in the Reseau Mondial for the twenty-three years from 1910 to 1932 for which this publication is available, show that for this period the world as a whole had subnormal temperatures only a year or two, approximately normal for a couple of
years, and considerably above nor- | Mal in all other cases.”The lowest natural temperature observed in the world, Mr. Kincer said, is minus 94.4 degrees, re- corded in the Siberian cold zone in February, 1892. The highest natural temperature in the world, 136.4 degrees, was observed in Tripolitania, Libya, North Africa, in September, 1922.”
