Scientific paper

The reciprocal of the surface-temperature gradient of the radiative imbalance, β, is a measure of stability, as well as sensitivity, of a global planetary model. Analysis in terms of β of M. H. Hart's (1978) evolutionary models shows how its insensitivity under present conditions and its near instability at earlier epochs are linked to the assumption of a highly reducing early atmosphere that absorbed strongly in the infrared.
