Greenhouse forcing:
"We find that the likelihood of the occurrence of climate regime shifts significantly increases in the context of super El Niño events due to their remarkable climate perturbations. This higher probability is detected across various climate elements, such as surface air temperature, sea surface temperature, and surface soil moisture. In addition, we suggest that this boost effect of super El Niño events on climate regime shifts will be greatly amplified under future greenhouse warming."Xue, A., Geng, X., Jin, FF. et al. (2025). "Super El Niño events drive climate regime shifts with enhanced risks under global warming" https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-025-66143-7

"Closely spaced or overlapping El Niño events create cumulative cloud suppression. Each El Niño phase actively reduces low-level stratocumulus and trade-wind cumulus clouds over vast tropical and subtropical ocean areas as part of the Bjerknes feedback loop. When the next El Niño develops before full cloud recovery during intervening La Niña or neutral conditions, the albedo loss becomes progressively more persistent, producing the observed multi-decadal linear decline. […] Major El Niño periods (especially 2015–16 and 2023–24) coincide with accelerated albedo drops and incomplete recoveries."
Ford, Gillon (2026). "The El Niño Ratchet Effect Overlapping El Niño Events as a Driver of Multi-Decadal Planetary Albedo Decline" https://www.academia.edu/167011795/The_El_Ni%C3%B1o_Ratchet_Effect_Overlapping_El_Ni%C3%B1o_Events_as_a_Driver_of_Multi_Decadal_Planetary_Albedo_Decline

Dr. Emily Judd: "The impact of anthropogenic climate change is (and will continue to be) determined by the rate of change (meaning how quickly CO2 and temperature change) much more than the absolute temperatures, themselves."

Geologists find evidence of dual #MassExtinctions 260 million years ago https://phys.org/news/2023-04-geology-experts-evidence-dual-mass.html
Global oceanic #anoxia linked with the Capitanian (Middle #Permian) marine #MassExtinction https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0012821X23001413
Oxygen-deprived oceans precipitated two mass extinctions around 259 million and 262 million years ago during the Middle Permian Period.
