  Milutin Milankovic   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Milankovic continued to practice civil engineering in Vienna until the autumn of 1909 when he was offered the chair of applied mathematics (rational mechanics, celestial mechanics, theoretical physics) in Belgrade.
For the second textbook, Milankovic wrote four sections developing and formulating his theory of the secular motion of the Earth's poles and his theory of glacial periods (Milankovitch cycles), which was built on earlier work by James Croll.
Objections were raised in the 1950s against the Milankovic theory of ice ages; these objections came mainly from meteorologists who claimed that the insolation changes due to the changes in the Earth's orbital elements were too small to significantly perturb the climate system.

Milankovic was also a creator of the tectonics of blocks, which is today applied a lot in geology.
Milutin Milankovic is truly a scientific genius, finally acknowledged as such by the world on December the 10th, 1976 when the "Nature" magazine printed the final results of the 5-year project, whose basic goal was to validate Milankovic's work and to answer the question whether his evaluations were correct or not.
Milankovic became the subject of intense interest of numerous scientific teams, since his work spanned the problems of several fields of knowledge.

 JENAM-2001: Special Colloquium - "European Astronomy in the 20th Century"
Milutin Milankovic (Dalj, May 28, 1879 - Belgrade, December 12, 1958), former director of the Belgrade Astronomical observatory and vice president of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, is the most distinguished Serbian astronomer of the XX century.
Milutin Milankovic went down in the history of science as the man who explained the phenomenon of the Ice Ages by slow changes of the Earth insolation in consequence of changes of the Earth's axis inclination and of those of the parameters of the Earth's motion round the Sun.
Milankovic elucidated also the history of the Earth's climate as well as that of other planets, being in addition the author of the mathematical theory of climate and of the Earth's pole motion.

 Ice age   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The complex pattern of changes in Earth orbit and the change of albedo may influence the occurrence of glacial and interglacial phases - this was first explained by the theory of Milutin Milankovic which is supported by the recently discovered details about the last ice age.
While Milankovic forcing predicts that cyclic changes in the Earth's orbital parameters can be expressed in the glaciation record, additional explanations are necessary to explain which cycles are observed to be most important in the timing of glacial periods.
In particular, during the last 800 thousand years the dominant glacial oscillation has been 100 thousand, which corresponds to changes in Earth's eccentricity and inclination, and yet is by far the weakest of the three frequencies predicted by Milankovic.

The complex pattern of changes in Earth's orbit and the change of albedo may influence the occurrence of glacial and interglacial phases — this was first explained by the theory of Milutin Milankovic.
The present ice ages are the most studied and best understood, particularly the last 400,000 years, since this is the period covered by ice cores that record atmospheric composition and proxies for temperature and ice volume.
While Milankovic forcing predicts that cyclic changes in the Earth's orbital parameters can be expressed in the glaciation record, additional explanations are necessary to explain which cycles are observed to be most important in the timing of glacial/interglacial periods.

On the occasion of the 125th anniversary of the birth of Milutin Milankovitch, Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts is organizing an international symposium aimed at reviewing the state-of-the-art of climate science as it relates to the scientific and professional work of Milankovitch.
The Milankovic or astronomical theory of climate change is an explanation for changes in the seasons whish result from changes in the earth's orbit around the sun.
Milutin Milankovic, the Serbian astronomer, calculated the slow changes in the earth's orbit by careful measurement of the position of the stars and using the gravitational pull of other planets and stars.

Milankovic was by profession a civil engineer, an astronomer, a mathematician, a geo-physicist, and, above all, the founder of modern climatology and climate modelling.
Exploring the influence of astronomical factors on climate changes in the Earth's geological past, Milankovic explained the periodical forming, developing and disappearing of the glacial phases during the past 600,000 years.
His masterpiece "The cannon of the amount of sunlight on the Earth and its application on the problem of ice-ages" is the most significant work of the Serbian science in the 20th century.

This solar curve was not really accepted until 1924 when the great meteorologist and climatologist Vladimir Koeppen with his son-in-law Alfred Wegener, introduced the curve in their work, entitled "Climates of the geological past".
Fully aware that his theory of solar radiation had been successfully completed and that the papers dealing with this theory were dispersed in separate publications, he decided to collect and publish them under a single cover.
However, in the late 1960s and 1970s, investigation of the deep-sea sediments brought widespread acceptance of Milankovic's view, since the periodicity discovered (100,000 years) matched so closely with the longest orbital period - see Ice age for more discussion.

During 1930-1941, Milankovic computed temperatures for the period of 600.000 years and postulated the theory of the alteration of the ice age on Earth.
Milankovic’s theory was fully confirmed by the British and American scientists analyzing the layers on the bottom of the oceans.
* Milutin Milankovic, Ph.D. (1879-1958), was a civil engineer and obtained his doctoral degree in engineering sciences, but he spent the greater part of his professional life teaching astronomy and mathematics at the University of Belgrade.

 Revised Julian calendar
This means that the two calendars will first differ in 2800, which will be a leap year in the Gregorian calendar, but a common year in the Revised Julian calendar.
This leap year rule was proposed by Milutin Milankovic, an astronomical delegate to the synod representing the governments of the Serbs, Croatians, and Slovenes.
Milankovic selected this rule, which produces an average year length of 365.242222… days, because it was within two seconds of the then current length of the mean tropical year.

 A simulation model for modern and glacial climates   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
In 1920, the meteorologist Milutin Milankovic proposed that small changes in Earth's orbit, precession, and inclination affect the heat balance and modify climate (the alterations called "solar forcing").
The Milankovic hypothesis was not taken seriously until 1976, when teams studying sediment cores from the ocean floor constructed a history of ocean temperature that matched the predictions of the Milankovic hypothesis, with two different ocean cores providing similar results.
The term "glacial maximum" refers to the time or position of the greatest extent of glaciation, and the term "hydrologic cycle" refers to the complete cycle through which water passes: from the ocean, through the atmosphere, to the land, and back to the ocean.

The complex pattern of changes in Earths orbit and the change of albedo may influence the occurrence of glacial and interglacial phases - this was first explained by the theory of Milutin Milankovic.
Within this period, the match of ice age frequencies to the Milankovic orbital forcing periods is so good that orbital forcing is the generally accepted explanation.
In particular, during the last 800 thousand years the dominant glacial oscillation has been 100 thousand years, which corresponds to changes in Earth's eccentricity and inclination, and yet is by far the weakest of the three frequencies predicted by Milankovic.

 EO Library: Milutin Milankovitch
The Serbian astrophysicist Milutin Milankovitch is best known for developing one of the most significant theories relating Earth motions and long-term climate change.
Born in the rural village of Dalj, Serbia, Milankovitch attended the Vienna Institute of Technology and graduated in 1904 with a doctorate in technical sciences.
Together, the periods of these orbital motions have become known as Milankovitch cycles.

 Cycles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
There has been debate about the reality of some economic cycles.
Our understanding of weather cycles being attributable to annual and monthly astronomical motions was extended by Milutin Milankovitch who showed that ice ages were closely related to variations in the Earth's orbital eccentricity, axial tilt and the precession of the equinoxes which have periods of around 100,000 years, 40,000 years and 26,000 years respectively.
