Daniel Brouse and Sidd MukherjeeMarch 25, 2026 1. Introduction Sea-level rise (SLR) is one of the clearest indicators of the nonlinear acceleration of climate impacts. Observational data from tide gauges and satellite altimetry show that SLR is increasing; critically, however, the rate of acceleration is itself increasing, resulting in rapidly shrinking doubling times. Importantly, SLR […]

Emergent Climate Dynamics: The Nonlinear Acceleration of Climate Impacts
A Unified Energetics Framework for Accelerating Climate Change
From Radiative Forcing to Drag Physics By Daniel Brouse and Sidd MukherjeeMarch 24, 2026 Abstract This paper presents a physics-based framework for understanding anthropogenic climate change through energy balance, rate dynamics, and force scaling. While the radiative basis of global warming is well established, we argue that the most critical—and underappreciated—dimensions of climate change lie […]
Ecofascism and Denialism 101
Introduction By systematically coding behaviors and rhetoric, this research identifies demographic patterns, behavioral characteristics, and ideological markers associated with denialist and ecofascist individuals. Findings indicate that these forms of discourse are dominated by specific demographic groups, exhibit distinctive behavioral traits, and reveal the intersection of ideological and scientific ignorance. Background I initially began investigating denialism […]
Denialism and Ecofascism in Online Climate Discourse: A Case Study
AbstractThis study investigates patterns of climate denialism and ecofascism in online discourse, analyzing several thousand interactions with English-language climate change posts and comments. By systematically coding behaviors and rhetoric, this research identifies demographic patterns, behavioral characteristics, and ideological markers associated with denialist and ecofascist individuals. Findings indicate that these forms of discourse are dominated by […]
The Climate Discount: Underestimating the Decline in Real Estate Values
Nonlinear Acceleration, Cascading Feedbacks, and the Compression of Climate Time Daniel Brouse¹ and Sidd Mukherjee²March 11, 2026 ¹Independent Climate Researcher, Economist²Physicist Abstract Recent observations across multiple climate indicators confirm that the impacts of global warming are accelerating at a nonlinear rate. We revisit the Nonlinear Acceleration Hypothesis, originally proposed in the early 1990s, which posits […]
Underestimating the Speed of Climate Change
Nonlinear Acceleration, Cascading Feedbacks, and the Compression of Climate Time Daniel Brouse¹ and Sidd Mukherjee²March 10, 2026 ¹Independent Climate Researcher, Economist²Physicist Abstract Recent observations across multiple climate indicators suggest that the impacts of global warming are accelerating faster than previously estimated. We revisit the Nonlinear Acceleration Hypothesis, originally proposed in the early 1990s, which posits […]
Underestimating the Speed of Climate Change
EASY READ VERSION Abstract How fast is climate change accelerating? Our analysis suggests that the observable impacts of global warming are currently increasing at roughly 262^626 (≈64-fold) per decade, implying a doubling time of approximately 2–5 years across multiple climate indicators. This rate is far faster than anything observed during known geological transitions over the […]
Change in SLR
ABOUT acceleration of climate change The new Sea level much higher than assumed in most coastal hazard assessments (published March 2026 in Nature) does not directly analyze acceleration of sea-level rise itself. Instead, it demonstrates a major systematic underestimation in coastal impact assessments due to incorrect reference levels for sea height and land elevation. However, […]
Climate Change: Is It Too Late?
Well, no. It will never be too late. That is the part the ecofascists are depending on. The physics limits warming to roughly +9°C. At that level, much of the planet would be uninhabitable — oceans would rise dramatically, heat extremes would make large regions lethal to humans, freshwater scarcity would be widespread, and agricultural […]
Anthropogenic Global Warming 101
A Primer on Physics, Evidence, and Acceleration Daniel BrouseMarch 3, 2025 Introduction This is a foundational course in anthropogenic climate change. It is not ideological. It is not partisan. It is based on physics, chemistry, and observational data. At the end, there will be a short test. 1. What Is the Cause of Anthropogenic Climate […]
