Interesting confession from you, Ralph : Never say never !
It means that one of these days you may be convinced of the falsehood of Glaaaaciaitons... Hey ? Also, and I am very sorry to disappoint you, the Mechanics of EE are not known nor have been expressed by anyone as yet. The key to it is in the UPL and in the True Geology arcane. Still I promise that one day I will go out of my way to explain that to you and to all, but before that you will have to come to terms with much more mundane demonstrations & hence understandings ! Amongst those the fallacy of Glaaaaaciations, of Orogenesis as spouted forth by the official Dudes, Erosion by water, fossil origin of Carbonates and a hundred further idiocies ! In fact the so-called Geology, as taught in the Universilities of the World, is just good to be thrown to the bin In True Geology as in True Physics one has to start from the palpable facts, before going into the understanding of the immense forces behind the marvellous harmonious equilibriums With best regards -- Jean-Paul Turcaud Exploration Geologist Founder of the True Geology ~~Ignorance Is The Cosmic Sin, The One Never Forgiven ! ~~ "Ralph Nesbitt" a écrit dans le message de news: ... If these folks are to be believed, http://makeashorterlink.com/?B24E216FA , EE is a "Documented Reality". Never thought I would ever agree with the EE Theory in any way. This is proof of the old adage "Never say never". The things affected/implications of this are many. Time is one issue in particular. The speed of the Earth's rotation would be affected as the Earth's diameter fluctuated. Ralph Nesbit ================================================== ============== Earth Gets Fatter Thanks to Faster Glacial Melting Accelerated melting of Earth's glaciers in recent years has forced the planet to let a notch out of its belt as its midsection gains girth, according to a study released today. The increased water flowing into the oceans each year since 1997 is equal to a square block of ice that would cover much of Utah, accounting for about half of a mysterious equatorial bulge first reported in August. The other contributing half appears to involve changing ocean currents that have redirected water from polar regions to tropical areas. The puzzling redistribution of mass actually involved a measurement of Earth's gravitational field. Earth has never been exactly spherical; it has always been somewhat pumpkin-shaped. Since the last Ice Age, though, the planet has gotten rounder and rounder as ground beneath the polar regions, relieved of the weight from ice, rebounds. Between 1997 and 1998, however, that rounding tendency suddenly reversed, satellite data showed, and the equator seems to have been getting fatter ever since. Scientists who announced the reversal could not explain it, but they were nearly certain the answer was in the oceans. The retreat of the South Cascade Glacier in the Washington Cascade Mountains is evident in these two photographs, from 1928 and 2000. Estimated mass change in glaciers outside Antarctica or Greenland, referred to as sub-polar and mountain glaciers. The new study seems to confirm that suspicion. "Our solution to the puzzle is rather straightforward, and involves redistribution of water mass from high to low latitudes, in quantities sufficient to counteract the ongoing effects of post-glacial rebound," said Jean Dickey, a researcher at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., who led the latest work. The study found less water in the so-called Antarctic Circumpolar Current, and more water in the tropical Pacific and Indian Oceans. The results are laid out in the Dec. 6 issue of the journal Science. Long-term changes in ocean currents may well be normal, like extended versions of the El Nino cycle, but researches don't have data over long enough time periods to know what exactly goes on. The melting of mountain glaciers, on the other hand, is of greater concern to scientists pondering the extent and effects of global warming. Other research teams have catalogued the phenomenon in many regions of the planet. Evidence continues to mount that a warming atmosphere is fueling accelerated melting worldwide. "The enhanced glacial melting amounts to several hundred cubic kilometers of water per year during the time of the most rapid changes [1997-98]," Dickey told SPACE.com. "The transport [of water] toward the equator in the ocean had a similar magnitude." Dickey's team worked with data supplied by the scientists who made the original discovery of the planet's swelling midsection. They also analyzed recent data on the oceans, land ice, the atmosphere, and groundwater. The study did not consider possible effects of polar ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica, for which not enough information was available. Dickey cautioned that the study is not entirely conclusive, as the changes in sea level are measured in millimeters and represent a "daunting task" that requires numerous corrections to account for various known factors, such as natural short-term fluctuations. |
