The Backlight 2 font sizes, both album title and description, in the descriptive thumbnail grid are much smaller than in Backlight 1.

They're actually the same size font. You're using different fonts for each site.
They both report at 14px for the title and 12px for the description using WhatFont
And the css shows the title at .857rem on both sites (14px) and both sites use 16px as the base font size.

The 0.75rem and 0.857rem font sizings appear multiple times in the code and all relate to 16px. Not only does it affect the thumbnail text, but also the caption text and copyright text. Changing the font size in custom.css as I have done does not affect the base font size of 16px.
How can I change the base font size to a larger value to effectively increase the text size which is a fraction of this value? And what are the ramifications of doing so?

The base font size affects a lot of elements. You could take a look at the main css file to find them all. what it means is that if you change the base font size you’ll unintentionally affect a lot of other things.
You’re better off just addressing the title and descriptions in the album sets on their own.

Thanks, Rod. I think I've fixed all the font size issues as you suggested. One small problem remains: the caption is cutting off the bottom of my vertical photographs. I'll work on that later.
