Abstract.A nonlinear stability threshold for convection in a rotating couple-stress fluid saturating a porous medium with temperature- and pressure-dependent viscosity using a thermal non-equilibrium model is found to be exactly the same as the linear instability boundary. This optimal result is important because it shows that linear theory has completely captured the physics of the onset of convection. The effects of couple-stress fluid parameter
