DED I CA TION

Usu ally a ded i ca tion comes at the begin ning of a book. Here it is at the end, where it will mean more, because now you have some idea of who these people are.

First, my men tors and col leagues at the Uni ver sity of Illi nois, George W. White, Har old W. Scott, Ralph Lan gen heim, and George Swenson, who taught me the fine art of scep ti cism.

Then Cesare Emil i ani at the Uni ver sity of Miami. Cesare was a Renais sance Man—a ‘Poly math’—knowl edge able not only about his own area of sci ence, but many other fields as well. Cesare was one of the first sci en tists to real ize that planet Earth has a dis ease—uncon trolled growth of the human pop u la tion.

My col leagues in phys i cal ocean og ra phy and atmo spheric sci ence at RSMAS in Miami: Claes Ro oth and Eric Kraus, who had the audac ity to imag ine wholly dif fer ent modes of atmo spheric and oce anic cir cu la tion.

Earl Ka uff man at the Uni ver sity of Col o rado con vinced me we didn’t really under stand the cli mate of the Cre ta ceous.

I want to espe cially thank Jörn Thi ede, foun der of GE O MAR in Kiel, then Direc tor of the Alfred Wegener Institute in Brem er ha ven. Jörn gave me the oppor­tu nity to spend unfet tered years pur su ing my goal of under stand ing how the Earth’s ‘warm’ cli mate sys tem worked.

My col leagues at GE O MAR (now the Leib nitz Insti tut für Me eres wis sen chaf­ten): Roland von Hu ene, Erwin Su ess, and Wolf Chris tian Dullo. And Michael Sar nth ein at the Uni ver sity of Kiel’s Depart ment of Geo log i cal Sci ences.

942 DEDICATION

Then there my per sonal heroes who worked on under stand ing the symp toms of the dis ease:

Roger Rev elle, who elo quently described the ‘Great Uncon trolled Exper i ment.”

Wally Broec ker, who warned us that if we didn’t make rapid pro gress in under­stand ing the ocean and its role in cli mate sci ence, Mother Nature might get ahead of us.

Bill Rud di man, who real ized that the human influ ence on the planet began not with the Indus trial Rev o lu tion, but back at the begin nings of civ i li za tion.

And those who have metic u lously doc u mented the ongo ing cli mate change of Earths cli mate, but espe cially:

Phil Jones of the Cli mate Research Unit of the Uni ver sity of East Anglia.

Jim Han sen of NASA’s God dard Insti tute of Space Sci ence in New York.

Michael Mann of the Earth Sys tem Sci ence Cen ter of The Penn syl va nia State Uni ver sity

All of them have been sub jects of mali cious vil i fi ca tion for sim ply report ing fac­tual infor ma tion, offer ing sci en tific inter pre ta tion, and sug gest ing pos si ble means of ame lio ra tion to avoid the obvi ous disas ter if trends con tinue.

Finally, Al Gore. The only US pol i ti cian with enough back ground in sci ence to fully under stand the sit u a tion. And the courage to bring it to pub lic atten tion.

FIG URE SOURCES

Unfor tu nately I did not always note the original source for fig ures down loaded from Inter net web sites. I have found most of the original sites, but a few may have dis ap peared. Almost all of the fig ures down loaded (almost all por traits of sci en­tists) are avail able at multiple web sites. They can be found by typ ing the per sons name in Go ogle, and then select ing ‘images’ which usu ally brings up sev eral pages of pic tures. Almost none of these have fur ther attri bu tion or notice of copy right.

For each of the pic tures I used I have indi cated the link below. You should be able to find the pic ture by copy ing the link and search ing the page.

Where there is clear evi dence of copy right, I have noted it.I assume that mate rial taken from 100 year­old and older jour nals is no longer under copy right.

AbOUT ThE AUThOR

William W. hay began his academic career at University of Illinois in Urbana in 1960. From 1968 to 1974 he was Professor at both Illinois and the University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences. After serving as Dean of the Rosenstiel School he moved to Washington, D.C. to work on ensur­ing future scientific drilling in the ocean. In 1982 he moved to the University of Colorado, investigating ancient climates with colleagues at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. Since 1988, he has also served as Guest and/or Professor at the Universities of Munich, Kiel, and Greifswald in Germany, the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands, and the University of Vienna in Austria. He retired from the University of Kiel in 2002. He now lives in the Rocky Mountains, but returns to Europe frequently to teach intensive short courses.
