by Daniel Brouse June 25, 2024 The migration of tree species in temperate zones is significantly impacted by climate change through several mechanisms: Shifts in Suitable Habitats: As temperatures rise, the suitable habitats for many tree species are moving poleward and to higher elevations. Trees that thrive in cooler climates are finding their current habitats […]

The Deadly Dog Days of Summer
by Daniel Brouse and Sidd Mukherjee A dog panting helps with thermal regulation primarily through evaporative cooling. Here’s how it works: Evaporative Cooling: When a dog pants, it increases the airflow over the moist surfaces of its tongue and the lining of its upper respiratory tract. This enhances evaporation of moisture from these surfaces, which […]

Economic Facts on Immigration, Budget Deficits and Inflation
The two major contributors to today’s inflation that a President can influence are insufficient immigration and federal budget deficits. Both Trump and Biden administrations have played significant roles in these issues. Through May of 2024, average hourly wage growth has exceeded inflation for 12 straight months. Economic Facts on Inflation and Wage Inflation Current Impacts […]

Politicians in Conservative, Rural USA Hinder Freedom
by Daniel Brouse Politicians in conservative, rural parts of the USA have often hindered progress in the fight against climate change due to several reasons: 1. Denial of Climate Science Many conservative politicians in rural areas deny the existence or severity of climate change, dismissing it as a hoax or exaggerated. This denial stems from […]

Convincing a Climate Change Denier of Reality
By Daniel Brouse Our climate model uses chaos theory in an attempt to adequately account for humans and forecasts a global average temperature increase of 9 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Everybody has the responsibility not to pollute. There are plenty of things you can do to help save the planet. Stop using fossil fuels. […]

Survey of Experts: Climate Crisis Going Past 2.5 Degrees
by Daniel Brouse The Guardian reports, “Many of the scientists envisage a ‘semi-dystopian’ future, with famines, conflicts and mass migration, driven by heatwaves, wildfires, floods and storms of an intensity and frequency far beyond those that have already struck.” In a recent survey of climate scientists, the consensus suggests that global warming is on track […]

Chaos Theory: Evolving Winter Atmospheric Teleconnection Patterns
By Daniel Brouse Teleconnections: Teleconnections refer to climate anomalies and patterns that occur over large distances and are often linked to each other. These connections can manifest as recurring climate patterns, such as El Nino and La Nina events, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), and the Southern Oscillation (SO). Teleconnections can influence weather and climate […]

The Decline of Penn’s Sylvania
By Daniel Brouse Penn’s Sylvania Pennsylvania derives its name from the land grant bestowed upon William Penn. Penn’s grant, known as “sylvania,” translates to “forest” in Latin. Prior to the arrival of European settlers, the region was predominantly covered by vast expanses of dense forests, with a wide range of biodiversity and inhabited by indigenous […]

9 Climate Change Tipping Points Crossed
By Daniel Brouse March 28, 2024 Tipping points are Critical Milestones that directly impact the rate of acceleration in climate change by multiplying the number and intensity of feedback loops. Identifying and understanding these tipping points is crucial for climate science and policymaking. Crossing multiple tipping points could lead to a domino effect, resulting in […]

Climate Change: Inexplicable Consumer Behavior
By Daniel Brouse March 24, 2024 Climate change is primarily driven by the escalation of thermal energy affecting biogeophysical and socio-economic systems. While biogeophysical factors can be studied using math, physics, and historical records, socio-economic systems pose greater challenges due to the unpredictable consequences of human behavior and inexplicable consumer choices. Inexplicable consumer behavior in […]
