What Your Donation Funds

Two complementary research tracks producing published findings across multiple domains.How they connect

Empirical Research: Space Weather and Human Systems

Markets · Energy · Infrastructure · Health

Long-Lead Space Weather Correlations

Validated statistically significant correlations between PDI regimes and geomagnetic disturbances 7 to 14 days before conventional detection, including Forbush Decrease preconditioning research.

Public Benefit: Published findings that advance the scientific understanding of heliospheric preconditioning.

Market Volatility Correlations

Identified statistically significant correlations between PDI elevation periods and financial market stress events across 30+ years of data, including major crisis periods.

Public Benefit: An independent environmental signal for portfolio stress testing, available to risk managers.

Energy System Vulnerability

Research into correlations between geomagnetically induced currents, cosmic ray flux variations, and periods of elevated power grid stress and energy price volatility.

Public Benefit: Advance situational awareness for grid operators and energy planners.

Mental Health Correlation Research

Active research examining correlations between geomagnetic disturbances and population-level neurological and psychological health patterns, including hospital admissions data.

Public Benefit: Evidence that may help healthcare systems prepare for elevated admission periods.

Theoretical Research: Systems Evolution and Mathematics

NRT · Exploratory

Number Recursion Theory (NRT)

A unified mathematical framework proposing that complex systems evolve through predictable recursive stages. Integrates the core NRT model, its base-12 extension enabling complete recursion cycles, and observer-collapsing logic for resolving self-referential analysis limits.

Public Benefit: A proposed mathematical language for modeling how complex systems evolve under stress, with potential applications to organizational development, AI, and systems analysis.
