Geology Professor and Science Historian Co-Author Article Exploring Eunice Foote’s Climate Experiments From 1856

Recently, Joseph Ortiz, Ph.D., professor and assistant chair in the Department of Geology in 91ֿ’s College of Arts and Science, partnered with Sir Roland Jackson, Ph.D., a historian of science at the Royal Institution and the Department of Science and Technology Studies at University College London, to co-author a paper assessing the experiments described in Eunice Foote’s papers from a detailed quantitative perspective and to place them in historical context. They point out the differences between her hypothesis and that of the modern greenhouse effect.
