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 Wildfires
by Daniel Brouse and Sidd Mukherjee About the 2023 wildfires in Hawaii, Governor Josh Green said, “For perspective, we’ve had six fire emergencies this August, we had six fire emergencies between 1953 and 2003. That’s how- how fast things are changing. I know that there is debate out there whether we should be talking about […]

Chaos Theory: Soil, Atmosphere and Ocean Interaction With Thermal Energy and Carbon Storage
by Daniel Brouse Chaos theory emphasizes the complexity and nonlinearity of dynamic systems, and this complexity is inherent in the interactions between soil, atmosphere, and oceans in the Earth’s climate system. Here’s how these components interact with thermal energy and carbon storage: Soil-Atmosphere Interaction: Thermal Energy Exchange: Soil plays a crucial role in the exchange […]

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 […]

Climate-Resilient Environment Around Your Home
by Daniel Brouse Soil is integral to our climate. What are the best methods to mitigate against climate change by providing wind breaks, shade, moisture retention, and climate control, around my home, as well as prevent soil degradation and desertification? Creating a sustainable and climate-resilient environment around your home involves a combination of practices that […]

Climate Change and Chaos Theory
By Daniel Brouse February 5, 2024 Global warming is caused by an increase in thermal energy. Atmospheric circulation together with ocean circulation is how thermal energy is redistributed throughout the world. Chaos theory offers insights into the complex, nonlinear dynamics of climate systems role in the redistribution of thermal energy. The Earth’s climate is a […]

Climate Change, the Jet Stream, and East Coast Atmospheric Rivers
by Daniel Brouse How is climate change impacting the jet stream and atmospheric rivers on the East Coast of the USA? The interactions between various factors, including ocean currents, sea surface temperatures, and atmospheric circulation, contribute to the overall climate patterns experienced on the East Coast. Climate change can influence the jet stream and atmospheric […]

Atmospheric Rivers and Coastal Erosion
Atmospheric rivers are long, narrow bands of concentrated moisture in the atmosphere that transport large amounts of water vapor. When these atmospheric rivers make landfall, they can bring heavy rainfall over an extended period, leading to increased runoff and potentially contributing to coastal erosion through several mechanisms: Intense Rainfall: Atmospheric rivers can bring intense and […]

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 […]
