CATASTROPHISM THEORY
What is the ECDO Theory?
This is a Grokipedia-style breakdown of The Ethical Skeptic's ECDO theory of cataclysmic change on Earth.

Ben Davidson Model – Global Sim
I’ve got my first model generated after massive rework to fix a critical data issue in the first models I did last weekend. This is Ben Davidson’s pole shift model. This model is the lowest tier model. I will be adding more accurate models soon. Takes a lot of compute power – which I have […]

ECDO Simulation – North America
I ran into serious math issues on my first public release last weekend, which forced me to completely rework how the simulation runs. To help me see if I’m getting close to “theoretical accuracy”, I am using North America simulations on the ECDO model. Junho did a bunch of these last year, so I generally […]
TPW RESEARCH
A True Polar Wander exercise
I posted this over on X: https://x.com/HashZappa/status/2049622856787743162 It was sparked by something Nobulart posted that seemed to give strong evidence of a North Pole location somewhere in the southwestern Hudson Bay 12,000 years ago. That set me on a path of curiosity, so I fired up my Claude cli environment and wrote up an instruction […]

Any interest in Pole Shift simulations?
I followed Junho’s simulation efforts on X last year and his work was quite impressive. He only focused on the ECDO theory, though, and was very strict in timeframe. I wanted to explore other theories and timing of the event to see how it would align. Little did I know, this turned into a multi-month […]
CATASTROPHISM THEORY
Four Papers on Earth’s Vanishing Wobbles and a Steady Pole Drift
A quick tour through four recent studies tracking the slowdown of Chandler and annual wobbles plus a consistent push of the rotation pole toward 75°W. These findings line up with the kind of rotational changes TPWSim readers simulate all the time.
CATASTROPHISM THEORY
Wandering Dipole Shifts From Internal Dynamics
Geomagnetic excursions arise from the system's own metastable attractor rather than external catastrophes.

Perhaps desertification may be evidence?
I’m a wandering pole guy, but the primary evidence that makes me think maybe the shift is the same direction each time (e.g., EDCO theory) is desertification. If the same region is repeatedly obliterated by sea water in specific arid conditions could create permanent desertification of the soil. If so, then this map could be […]

Map of oil and natural gas reserves in US/Canada
Why do I see ancient flood maps in just about everything anymore? From desertification to salt deposits to now oil and natural gas reserves. It is interesting how most of the oil and natural gas reserves seem to follow the eastern slopes of the Rockies though. Just another thing that makes you go hmmmmmmm….
