How does a Thermometer Measure Air Temperature?

Edit About.com 08 Nov 2015
When a thermometer is exposed to the atmosphere, the surrounding air's temperature will permeate it, eventually balancing the thermometer's temperature with its own -- a process whose fancy scientific name is "thermodynamic equilibrium." If the thermometer and it's inside liquid must warm to reach this equilibrium, the liquid ......

Human domination of the biosphere: Rapid discharge of the earth-space battery foretells the future of humankind

Edit PNAS 15 Jul 2015
The laws of thermodynamics governing the trickle-charge and rapid discharge of the earth’s battery are universal and absolute; the earth is only temporarily poised a quantifiable distance from the thermodynamic equilibrium of outer space. Although this distance from equilibrium is comprised of all energy types, most critical ......
