- explainsEstablished
Climate science identifies the greenhouse mechanism as the cause of the warming we measure.
- strong relations
- well-established links
- explains the mechanism, not just the fact
- crosses disciplines (a transfer moment)
- Climate Science crosses into (Climate science → Climate change) Earth & Space Sciences
Other ways they connect
Two ideas are often linked by more than one valid chain of reasoning. The route above is chosen for how well it explains — not for being shortest.

About this view
Choose any two concepts. Thinking OS traces the chain of reasoning between them — with the mechanism and epistemic status of every link — and shows that more than one valid path often exists.
A route is ranked by explanatory quality, not brevity — the clearest mechanism wins, not the fewest hops.
Every edge shows its mechanism and epistemic status; the “To” picker offers only reachable targets, so never a dead end.
