from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John P. Abraham is Professor of Thermal Science at the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota . He conducts research in the field of thermodynamics and climate change .

Life

Abraham concluded in the years 1997, 1999 and 2002, his bachelor's, master's and doctoral studies from each of the University of Minnesota in specialized machinery .

Act

Abraham is Professor of Thermal Science at the University of St. Thomas, Minnesota. His research covers burn and scald injuries , biological heat transfer , medical device design , climate change, energy generation and distribution, and basic research in fluid mechanics and heat transfer.

A public confrontation between Abraham and Christopher Monckton , a well-known actor on the British climate change denier scene , received a lot of attention . In response to the unscientific myths about climate change propagated by Monckton, Abraham conducted extensive research to demonstrate their insubstantiality. He created a video that is available on the Internet and received worldwide attention.
