Towards a better understanding of the Anthropocene
Ron W Nielsen
(1) Results of analysis of new sets of anthropogenic data are presented. They confirm earlier results of similar analyses. The expected and inevitable massive deceleration of human…
Mathematical Analysis of Anthropogenic Signatures: The Great Deceleration
Ron W. Nielsen
Distributions of anthropogenic signatures (impacts and activities) are mathematically analysed. The aim is to understand the Anthropocene and to see whether anthropogenic signature…
Explaining the Origin of the Anthropocene and Predicting Its Future
Ron W. Nielsen
Growth of the world population and the world economic growth were hyperbolic in the past 2,000,000 years. Recently, from around 1950, they started to be diverted to slower trajecto…
Explaining the Mechanism of Growth in the Past Two Million Years Vol. I
Ron W. Nielsen
Economic growth and the growth of human population in the past 2,000,000 years are extensively examined. Data are found to be in a clear contradiction of the currently accepted exp…
Changing the Direction of the Economic and Demographic Research
Ron W. Nielsen
A simple but useful method of reciprocal values is introduced, explained and illustrated. This method simplifies the analysis of hyperbolic distributions, which are causing serious…
Application of Differential Equations in Projecting Growth Trajectories
Ron W. Nielsen
Mathematical method based on a direct or indirect analysis of growth rates is described. It is shown how simple assumptions and a relatively easy analysis can be used to describe m…
Nuclear Reactions: Mechanism and Spectroscopy. Volume II
Ron W. Nielsen
Volume II of two. This document could be of interest to anyone who wants to have a comprehensive inside information about the research in nuclear physics from its early beginnings…
Nuclear Reactions: Mechanism and Spectroscopy. Volume I
Ron W Nielsen
Volume I of two. This document could be of interest to anyone who wants to have a comprehensive inside information about the research in nuclear physics from its early beginnings t…
Mathematical analysis of historical income per capita distributions
Ron W Nielsen
Data describing historical growth of income per capita [Gross Domestic Product per capita (GDP/cap)] for the world economic growth and for the growth in Western Europe, Eastern Eur…
Puzzling properties of the historical growth rate of income per capita explained
Ron W Nielsen
Galor discovered many mysteries of the growth process. He lists them in his Unified Growth Theory and wonders how they can be explained. Close inspection of his mysteries reveals t…
The Postulate of the Three Regimes of Economic Growth Contradicted by Data
Ron W Nielsen
Economic growth in Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Asia, countries of the former USSR, Africa and Latin America were analysed. It is demonstrated that the fundamental postulate of…
The unresolved mystery of the great divergence is solved
Ron W Nielsen
The so-called great divergence in the income per capita is described in the Unified Growth Theory as the mind-boggling and unresolved mystery about the growth process. This mystery…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Mathematical Analysis of the Historical Growth of Human Population
Ron W Nielsen
Data describing the historical growth of human population global and regional (Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Asia, former USSR, Africa and Latin America) are analysed. Results ar…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Absence of Takeoffs in the Gross Domestic Product
Ron W Nielsen
Data describing historical economic growth are analysed. They demonstrate convincingly that the takeoffs from stagnation to growth, claimed in the Unified Growth Theory, never happ…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Economic Growth in Latin America
Ron W Nielsen
Historical economic growth in Latin America is analysed using the data of Maddison. Unified Growth Theory is found to be contradicted by these data in the same way as it is contrad…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the GDP/cap Data
Ron W Nielsen
Mathematical properties of the historical GDP/cap distributions are discussed and explained. These distributions are frequently incorrectly interpreted and the Unified Growth Theor…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Economic Growth in Europe
Ron W Nielsen
Historical economic growth in Western and Eastern Europe is analysed. These regions should have produced the best and the most convincing confirmation of the Unified Growth Theory…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Economic Growth in the Former USSR
Ron W Nielsen
Historical economic growth in countries of the former USSR is analysed. It is shown that Unified Growth Theory is contradicted by the data, which were used, but not analysed, durin…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Economic Growth in Asia
Ron W Nielsen
Historical economic growth in Asia (excluding Japan) is analysed. It is shown that Unified Growth Theory is contradicted by the data, which were used (but not analysed) during the…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Economic Growth in Africa
Ron W Nielsen
One of the fundamental postulates of the Unified Growth Theory is the claimed existence of three distinctly different regimes of economic growth governed by three distinctly differ…
Early Warning Signs of the Economic Crisis in Greece: A Warning for Other Countries and Regions
Ron W Nielsen
Warning signs about the developing economic crisis in Greece were present in the growth rate of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and in the growth of the GDP well before the econom…
The Insecure Future of the World Economic Growth
Ron W Nielsen
Growth rate of the world Growth Domestic Product (GDP) is analysed to determine possible pathways of the future economic growth. The analysis is based on using the latest data of t…
Mathematics of Predicting Growth
Ron W Nielsen
Mathematical methods of analysis of data and of predicting growth are discussed. The starting point is the analysis of the growth rates, which can be expressed as a function of tim…
Hyperbolic Growth of the World Population in the Past 12,000 Years
Ron W. Nielsen
Data describing the growth of the world population in the past 12,000 years are analysed. It is shown that, if unchecked, population does not increase exponentially but hyperbolica…
