ABOUT THE SONG: Feedbacks Amplifying Warming
Initial radiative forcing is amplified by feedbacks:
-
Water vapor feedback: warmer air holds more water → more greenhouse effect
-
Ice-albedo feedback: melting ice lowers reflectivity → more absorption
-
Permafrost carbon release: thawing peat releases CO₂ and CH₄ → additional forcing
This creates nonlinear acceleration: warming triggers processes that produce more warming — a key insight in the “Domino Effect” hypothesis.
