Sinossi
Excerpt from The Edinburgh Journal of Science, Vol. 4: October April
Why does the temperature of the earth cease to be variable at so small a depth in relation of the radius of the globe P What time ought to elapse in order that the climates may acquire the different temperatures that they have at present, and what causes may still change the mean heat? To what cause ought we to ascribe it that the globe has not entirely lost its own heat, and what are the exact laws of its expendi ture Independently of the two sources of heat in our globe, the one fundamental and primitive, and the other due to the presence of the sun, is there not a more universal cause which determines the temperature of the heavens in that part of space which the solar system now occupies P In this ques tion, which is entirely new, what are the consequences of an exact theory How can we determine this constant value of the temperature of space, and deduce from it that which be longs to each planet? If we add to these leading questions those which depend on the properties of radiant heat, and se veral others not less important, we may form an idea of the admirable investigation of this eminent philosopher.
