by Daniel Brouse When we authored our paper on the acceleration of climate change, we couldn’t have anticipated its rapid pace. The doubling period for sea level rise, which was projected to span 100 years, dramatically shortened to 10 years by 2020. Shockingly, recent observations indicate that this doubling period has further compressed to just […]

Enso-Neutral Not So Neutral
by Daniel Brouse The neutral phase of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) occurs when water temperature anomalies in the eastern and central Pacific range between 0.5 °C and -0.5 °C. During this period, neither La Niña nor El Niño conditions dominate, and it is sometimes humorously referred to as “La Nada”; however, ENSO-neutral is anything […]

Climate Change Today
By Daniel Brouse March 23, 2024 We are aware that the average temperature increased by 1.2°C by 2022. Subsequently, the annual average temperature exceeded 1.5°C for the first time in January 2024. There is a substantial likelihood that if humans persist in emitting greenhouse gases at the current rate, the temperature will rise by 4°C […]

Earth’s Vital Signs
by Daniel Brouse Human-induced climate change serves as a dynamic and intricate component within an unordered system, guided by chaos theory. This suggests that global warming is undergoing exponential acceleration in a complex manner. The pace at which climate change is accelerating can be described as rapid, as evident in the intensity, duration, and likelihood […]

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 […]
