Coral Reefs’ Tipping Point
by Daniel Brouse February 14, 2024 Coral reefs confront unprecedented challenges arising from various stressors, many of which are directly tied to human activities. Some of these stressors possess critical tipping points, surpassing which can lead to the collapse of coral ecosystems. According to the European Geosciences Union’s statement on January 2, 2024, specific tipping […]

Climate Change and How Soil Degradation Can Lead to Desertification
Why is soil integral to climate change? How does soil degradation lead to desertification? Soil plays a crucial role in climate change mitigation and adaptation, and soil degradation can contribute to the process of desertification. Here’s why soil is integral to climate change and how soil degradation can lead to desertification: Importance of Soil in […]

The Relationships Between M-Theory, Chaos Theory, and Music
The relationships between M-theory, chaos theory, and music are a complex and interdisciplinary topic. M-theory: M-theory is the theory of “everything” in physics that attempts to unify the five string theories. It posits that the fundamental building blocks of the universe are not particles but rather one-dimensional “strings.” Some scientists and theorists have explored the […]
Gravity, Sea Level Rise and Surge
by Daniel Brouse and Sidd Mukherjess In general, the coasts that are seeing the largest storm surges are the same areas that are experiencing the fastest rate of sea level rise. The sea level does not rise at the same rate for most coastlines. Some of the conditions that determine the sea level at any […]

Greenland Atmospheric Rivers
by Sidd Mukherjee Historically in the United States, atmospheric rivers (AR) have been associated with the West Coast. Now, AR activity is getting more attention on the East Coast. Atmospheric rivers have been putting serious rainfall melt on Greenland for the last decade, too. Darker snow surfaces absorb more sunlight and melt quicker. This effect […]

West Coast Atmospheric Rivers
by Daniel Brouse As the Earth warms, the air will hold more moisture. More moisture-laden air moves over land and creates atmospheric rivers (Pineapple Express). The Journal EOS in the article Atmospheric Rivers Spur High-Tide Floods on U.S. West Coast said, “Atmospheric rivers are narrow bands of moisture that travel across the lower troposphere, generally […]
