Joe Mach, UTulsa ENS Hall of Famer and inventor of Nodal Analysis, will present a macro math and physics approach to modeling the state of the atmosphere. After establishing the governing equations for CO2 concentration in the atmosphere a Material Balance Model from 1750 to present is developed. After matching the data and observations predictions are made to 2100. The contributions from processes such as anthropogenic emissions, urban heat islands and deforestation are quantified and compared.
The current temperature, 15°C, is calculated using both AMO and gas compression physics. The results are compared to the other rock planets in the solar system. A comparison is made to determine the contribution of both.
The climate is warming at 0.02°C per year. Something is adding 100 quads per year to the atmosphere. Various offenders are investigated: UHI, CO2 back radiation, deforestation, Earth core temperature, solar activity, volcanoes, wasted heat, etc.
Specific conclusions are presented for:
- what’s causing the Keeling Curve (CO2) to systematically increase.
- what causes the atmospheric temperature to be 15°C.
- what’s causing the atmospheric temperature to increase at 0.02°C/year (adding > 100 quads/year).
Please join The University of Tulsa and the National Academy of Engineering for a one-day event focused on Energy and Subsurface Engineering: Challenges, Technologies and Future Directions.
This year’s program will bring together academic and industry leaders to examine the evolving landscape of subsurface energy systems. Discussions will explore technical challenges, emerging technologies and innovative approaches shaping the future of energy production, storage and sustainability.
With an emphasis on interdisciplinary solutions and forward-looking strategies, the event will feature expert insights, case studies and perspectives on the opportunities and complexities facing the energy sector in the years ahead.
