The gradual sequestering of CO2 over millions of years gradually dropped CO2 to starvation levels that reduced photosynthesis, causing the “phytoplankton blackout” and Carboniferous Rainforest Collapse, wide spread ecosystem disruptions…
Tag: Plate tectonics
UN Advisor Claims ‘climate change is triggering more earthquakes’ – ‘There is growing scientific evidence that climate change increases the risk of such tremors, together with tsunamis and volcanic eruptions’
Warmists now claim everything caused by AGW: ‘Could it be then, that if we continue to allow greenhouse gas emissions to rise unchecked and fuel serious warming, our planet’s crust…
Sea Level Rise: Hockey Stick or Roller Coaster?
…apparent sea level acceleration may have oscillated about a mean of zero and an amplitude of roughly 0.4 mm/yr/yr.
Plate Tectonics Drives Ocean Oxygenation
… these findings reveal the hitherto underestimated role played by plate tectonics in the evolution of biodiversity in the oceans over geological time scales.
Seafloor spreading has been slowing down
This cycle is called seafloor spreading, and its rate shapes many global processes, including sea level and the carbon cycle. Faster rates tend to cause more volcanic activity, which releases…
Study Combines Climatic, Tectonic Models to Explain Andean Conundrum
“This study is a critical step forward to have the ability to quantitatively link climate and tectonics – something not well represented in the past studies,” Liu said.
Scientists Discover Plate Tectonics… Again
Guest “Did you know?” by David Middleton An upwelling of rock beneath the Atlantic may drive continents apartThe Mid-Atlantic Ridge may play a more active role in plate tectonics than…
Forget Sea Level Rise: Ocean Deepening Is Here!
Guest “truth is stranger than friction” by David Middleton Alternate Title: The Cretaceous Sea Level Paradox Oceans are at their deepest in 250 million yearsAnd they have hardly been deeper…
Carbon Sequestration
Guest post by Rud Istvan, As most WUWT readers know, the issue of carbon sequestration is an important but largely IPCC undiscussed ‘anthropogenic global warming’ question. I got to thinking…
The NanTroSEIZE Project: Drilling through a plate boundary in an active subduction zone.
Guest post by David Middleton From Real Clear Science: These 7 Expeditions Could Reveal Some of Earth’s Biggest Secrets in 2019 By Adam Mann This past year brought tons of…
Earth Is Sucking Down Way More Water Than We Thought, And No One’s Sure Where It’s Going
From Science Alert WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY IN ST. LOUIS 25 NOV 2018 Slow-motion collisions of tectonic plates under the ocean drag about three times more water down into the deep Earth…
Earth Devouring Its Own Oceans!!! Film at 11.
Guest oy vey by David Middleton First we learn that climate change is dissolving the seafloor and now we find out that Earth is devouring its own oceans (like it…
Study: plate tectonics modulates volcanic activity, which in turn modulates climate forcings
From Rice University comes this study that tries to equate an analog circuit component onto a climate forcing component. It is an interesting approach. The idea that plate tectonics serves…
