	Cesare Emiliani
		Cesare Emiliani was born as a son to Luigi and Maria (Manfredidi) Emiliani on December 8, 1922 in Bologna, Italy.
		Emiliani initiated use of this technique to the shells of foraminifera in ancient sediments from the ocean floor and concluded that the deep waters of the ocean had been much warmer in the early Tertiary.
		Cesare Emiliani was a renaissance scientist in the truest sense.

	Cesare Emiliani - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cesare Emiliani in the early 1950s when he was doing his pioneering research at the University of Chicago (Photo from the Archives of the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, University of Miami).
		Cesare Emiliani (8 December 1922 - 20 July 1995) was an Italian-American scientist, considered one of the greatest geologists and micropaleontologists of the 20th century and the founder of paleoceanography.
		Emiliani was close to a Renaissance man, familiar with classical literature, fluent in many languages, and a valiant opponent of dogmatic attitudes and mental rigidity wherever found.

	Cesare Emiliani
		Cesare Emiliani, one of the seminal figures in isotope geochemistry and paleoclimatology, died from a sudden heart attack on July 20 11,995 H.E. in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
		The discovery of the many cycles of Plio-Pleistocene glaciation and their correlation with the Milankovich cycle revolutionized the understanding of Cenozoic climatic and glaciation cycles, and stands as one of the most remarkable examples of the overturning of geological concepts based on continental studies by new ideas developed from oceanographic research.
		Cesare Emiliani was a true Renaissance scientist, at home in classical literature, fluent in many languages, and a dedicated opponent of dogma and mental rigidity wherever he found it.

	Temperatures from Fossil Shells
		While Emiliani and others pursued the oxygen isotopes, others continued to estimate temperatures from the assemblage of foram species found in a given layer in a core.
		Emiliani discussed the problem at some length in his 1955 paper, but he had not thought a large correction was needed.
		Dansgaard and Tauber (1969); Imbrie and Kipp (1971); Emiliani (1992), complaining that Shackleton's conclusion was "almost universally (and uncritically) accepted" and arguing that at least part of the effect is indeed temperature; for discussion Bradley (1985), pp.

	Past Cycles: Ice Age Speculations
		Emiliani measured the oxygen isotopes in the microscopic shells of foraminifera, a kind of ocean plankton.
		Emiliani tentatively identified the rises and dips of temperatures with the geologists' traditional chronology of the past three glacial periods.
		Emiliani fiercely defended his position, but other workers in the late 1960s convinced the scientific community that he was mistaken.

	Milankovitch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29)
		This paper was followed by a rebuttal from Cesare Emiliani, a well known and outspoken supporter of MT entitled, "Milankovitch theory verified".
		We show in the figure the seven astronomical "low" events that Emiliani gives in the third column in his table, as well as the seven (but not identical) events that satisfy the specific definition of astronomical low conditions using data in reference 4.
		So, it seems that Emiliani manipulated the data quite extensively in order to make it fit in with MT. Though this was most certainly done subconsciously, it highlights the pitfalls of bias - of having a strong belief that a particular view or theory is almost certainly "true".

	Emiliani, Cesare - Encyclopedia of Earth
		Cesare Emiliani (1922-1995), an Italian paleoceanographer who used Urey's oxygen isotope to discover that the temperature of the ocean and the ice masses on Earth changed through time in cycles and showed that these cycles could be recognized and correlated throughout the Atlantic.
		Using core samples fom ocean sediments, Emiliani research analysis indicated that there had been many more cycles of glaciation than conventional wisdom held; he found seven, extending to the base of the Caribbean cores and fifteen in the Pacific cores.
		Emiliani was honored by having the genus Emiliania erected as home for the taxon huxleyi, which had previously been assigned to Coccolithus.

		The light which the clouds reflect cannot be used to warm the earth; it is just returned to space, and to that extent the solar radiation is reduced..." In 1955 famed geologist Cesare Emiliani discovered the existence of a series seven systemic ice ages by measuring oxygen isotopes in ocean bottom cores.
		Noting Emiliani's ocean core studies and Kukla's work in Czechoslovakia, he wrote: "In the late 1960s the land and ocean bottom findings were shown to match, and by then it was shown that the interglacials were relatively short respites between the long ice ages.

	Hills point to catastrophic ice age floods Science News - Find Articles
		The ratios of oxygen isotopes in these organisms suggested that sometime around 11,500 years ago, a large amount of freshwater entered the gulf, says Cesare Emiliani of the University of Miami in Coral Gables.
		On the basis of the isotope studies, Emiliani and his colleagues theorized that a sudden influx of meltwater from the ice sheet could have rapidly raised sea levels, sparking myths of a great deluge.
		When Emiliani's group proposed the theory, glacial experts responded that the sun could not melt the ice sheet fast enough to create such a sea-level rise.

	TIME.com: Another Ice Age? -- Nov. 13, 1972 -- Page 1
		Writing in Science, Emiliani reports that the earth has undergone at least eight periods of extreme cold and seven of torrid heat in the past 400,000 years.
		But Emiliani's investigations, and also those of Columbia University's David Ericson and Goesta Wollin, have shown that the ice ages were as short as 10,000 to 20,000 years.
		Thus, Emiliani warns, the present period of "amiable climate," which has already lasted 12,000 years, may soon come to an end, perhaps within the next 2,000 or 3,000 years.

		The Dean of Geology, Dr. Cesare Emiliani, was a brilliant and amusing man who had a price set on his head by the fascist government of Italy during World War II.
		As the pitcher of Bass Ale was passed around, we discussed the fall and ruin of American education (our students could never compare to Cesare's beloved Bologna), the fall of Rome, the price of beer, Italy's performance in the Second World War, and absurdities and calamities suffered in foreign ports on research cruises.

	Global cooling (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29)
		Concern peaked in the early 1970s, partly because of the cooling trend then apparent (a cooling period began in 1945, and two decades of a cooling trend http://www.env.leeds.ac.uk/envi2150/lecture7/lecture7.html suggested a trough had been reached after several decades of warming), and partly because much less was then known about world climate and causes of ice ages.
		A history of the discovery of global warming states that: While neither scientists nor the public could be sure in the 1970s whether the world was warming or cooling, people were increasingly inclined to believe that global climate was on the move, and in no small way.
		In 1972 Emiliani warned of the possibility of "a runaway glaciation", unless human-caused global warming instead causes "a runaway deglaciation".

		Among the data drawn on by Broecker and his team to make their findings was the work conducted in 1957 by Cesare Emiliani of the Department of Geology at the University of Miami.
		(8) However, since other cores examined by Emiliani had not shown the same rapid transition, he decided that the anomalous cores lacked vital sediment layers covering a period of several thousand years of ecological history, and so dismissed them as unreliable.
		As a consequence, they reinstated Emiliani's controversial findings as crucial evidence of a major shift in oceanic temperatures around 11,000 years ago.

		Shortly thereafter, I moved to Miami where Dr. Cesare Emiliani at the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science would become my mentor.
		Measuring oxygen-isotope concentrations in planktic foraminifera (forams) from deep-sea cores, Cesare developed the paleotemperature curve that revolutionized understanding of Ice Age oceanic temperatures by showing climatic and glacial/interglacial periodicities.
		It was he who further inspired and instilled a sense of excitement for the potential and many multidisciplinary ramifications that planktic forams can hold for deciphering the geologic record.
