Atmospheric Refraction
Atmospheric Refraction is a scholarly work, published in 1922 in ''Nature''. The main subjects of the publication include lapse rate, optics, philosophy, physics, sea level rise, fallacy, Earth radius, mixture, argument, atmospheric refraction, refraction, standard atmosphere, altitude, observable, map projection, and refractive index. Mallock's reasoning, based on the above-mentioned observational fact, leads to a value of k, the coefficient of terrestrial refraction, which is almost exactly twice as great as that found by observation under ordinary conditions.
