  • Wynn Edwards [Vero Copner Wynne-Edwards] paper was most informative + I have noted the following. 1. Climatic Changes in northern Continental Europe are real. Mean increase in north 3-5 [degree symbol]/ winter increase in Finland 2-3 [degree symbol]. East Greenland winters are 5-7 [degree symbol] warmer. Utah Salt Lake has lost 50% of its volume in 50 yrs [years]. Caspian Sea + other Steppe lakes are drying up. Pack ice of northern Asia has receded until almost 100 ships ply the N.E. [northeast] passage annually. Britain has not shared this warm up. Only abou [about] .7 [degree symbol] mean annual increase + coldest winter temperatures are now lower. The mildest climate in N [Northern] Europe + Britain since the ice age was about 5000 B.C. [Before Christ] This coexisted with early norse colonization of Greenland. Until about 1100 or so they still buried their dead, cultivated grain + raised sheep in Greenland. When they died out they were unable to do any of these things. In the last 5000 years the diff [difference] between mild periods + cold periods has not exceeded the diff. [difference] between good years + bad. Notes from Dr Campbells paper on Gray Lag geese 2 prs [pairs] in 15 years have become 200 (prs [pairs] or birds?) 1 pr [pair] has become 40 prs [pairs] in 14 yrs [years]
