What reading level is Volcanic Dust in Oklahoma book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is a diversity of opinion concerning the thickness of the crust, some maintaining that it is of insignificant thickness as compared with the bulk of the liquid interior; while others, impressed with the general stability and rigidity of the earth as a whole, maintain that it 'must be of considerable thickness. This hypothesis is not so prom- inent now as it was formerly, largely due to the fact that astronomers have proved conclusively, according to many eminent authorities, that the eart...h's behavior in reference to the attraction of the sun and moon and in the transmission of waves through the interior shows it to have a high rigidity, equal to that of a sphere of steel of the same dimen- sions.
Interposed Liquid Layer.
A series of interesting computations were made by Tait. His re- sults, based on the observed rate of increase of temperature towards the center of the earth, and the rate at which rocks conduct heat, show that a sufficient amount of the interior heat is being radiated off annually into space from each square foot of the earth's surface to raise the temperature of one and one-fourth pounds of water from the freezing point to the boiling point.
