[Artificial climate].

Abstract

The microclimatic conditions characterizing the domestic environment, are reviewed by the author, based on personal 40-year experience, including an evaluation of its various important formative components. The author examines the general state of unawareness regarding the necessary features of the domestic microenvironment required to ensure its inhabitants thermal comfort. In conclusion a proposal is made to the authorities, requesting that they direct greater attention to this problem.

[Do volcanic eruptions and wide-spread fires affect our climate?].

During the first half of 1991, the press, radio and TV have often reported about large fires (Kuwait, forest fires in Portugal) or volcanic eruptions (Mount Unzen, Pinatubo). Starting with the facts, the author investigates first the kind of particles constituting such smoke clouds and in particular their size. He places the main cloud in the atmosphere and asks; the cloud remains near the soil, whether it reaches the upper layers of the troposphere or it breaks out into the stratosphere? The transport of the cloud depends on particle-size and of the winds blowing in the reached layer. All these clouds have an impact on the weather. The author analyses finally the credible influence of such clouds on weather elements: radiation and temperature as well as the extent of these effects. He corroborates his analysis by visual observations or measurements.
