182443911Paris Crochard 1824. Without wrappers. In: "Annales de Chimie et de Physique Par MM. Gay-Lussac et Arago." tome 27 Cahier 3. Pp. 225-336. Entire issue offered. Fourier's paper: pp. 236-281. <br/><br/><em>First printing of this importent paper dealing with the "Green-House-Effect". It is the second paper from 1824 in which Fourier investigates the connection between the temperature of the earth and radiation. Fourier's analysis in these two papers is widely recognized as the first proposal of what is now known as the greenhouse effect theory.In the 1820s Fourier calculated that an object the size of the Earth and at its distance from the Sun should be considerably colder than the planet actually is if warmed only by the effects of incoming solar radiation. He examined various possible sources of the additional observed heat in articles published in 1824 the paper offered is the second of the papers published 1824 and 1827. While he ultimately suggested that interstellar radiation might be responsible for a large portion of the additional warmth Fourier's consideration of the possibility that the Earth's atmosphere might act as an insulator of some kind is widely recognized as the first proposal of what is now known as the greenhouse effect theory. </em> unknown

Comte Gilbert Joseph Gaspard de Chabrol de Volvic 1773 - 1843 was a French official. Graduating from an École Polytechnique in 1794 he was named prefect of the Seine and thus Prefect of Paris by Napoleon in 1812 an office he held until 1833. He is to be credited with paving several of Paris's streets and boulevards the creation of pavements and the gradual conversion of city lighting to gaslight. He also created and financed the École d'Architecture et de Sculpture de Volvic. This work is attributed to Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier 1768 - 1830 a French mathematician and physicist best known for initiating the investigation of Fourier series and their applications to problems of heat transfer and vibrations. The Fourier transform and Fourier's Law are also named in his honour. Fourier is also generally credited with the discovery of the greenhouse effect.
