Billings, MT Scientist & Author Publishes Book on Global Warming

Global Warming?, a new book by Dr. Stephen T. Hanley, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Global Warming? represents the culmination of a lifetime of work to better understand the atmosphere. The constituents of the atmosphere are a type of "fingerprint" and being able to measure the molecules at different levels will help us to understand the dynamic nature of the system. This could then inform policies and decision-making about human activities that may influence climate change.
