From the French Alps to the Royal Institution labs, John Tyndall's appreciation for nature helped develop the foundations of climate science. Learn about his extremely sensitive radiant heat experiments, through which he tested atmospheric gases' ability to absorb and re-emit infrared radiation http://www.rigb.org/our-history/history-of-research/john-tyndall-timeline?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social | Royal Institution of Great Britain

John Tyndall was born on this day in 1820 (most likely). He was a pioneer of climate science, Director of Laboratories at the Ri and keen mountaineer. His time spent in the Alps drove him to study atmospheric gases, and lay the foundations for what today we call the Greenhouse Effect. | Royal Institution of Great Britain

7.4K views · 199 reactions | In the 1800s, Irish physicist John Tyndall discovered that some atmospheric gases absorb infrared radiation.  This helped scientists later understand how heat is trapped by the Earth’s atmosphere—the basis of what we now call the greenhouse effect. Greenhouse gases are essential for us to live on our planet, but we're now experiencing "too much of a good thing". | Royal Institution of Great Britain | Facebook
