And precipitation levels are rising -
for a very good reason.
The world's oceans are being heated by
underwater tectonic activity - underwater
volcanic eruptions and blisteringly hot magma
seeping up from cracks in the sea floor.
The heated ocean water creates high levels of
CO2 that it sends aloft along with huge amounts
of moisture. That moisture becomes precipitation
- rain in the spring, summer, and fall, and snow
in the winter. Increased amounts of moisture in
the upper atmosphere equals increased amounts
of precipitation.
The hotter the oceans, the more water vapor sent
heavenward and the heavier the precipitation. This
explains the large number of record-breaking
rainfalls we've been seeing in the past couple of
years - with as noted above, areas of the United
States getting 20 inches of rain in a day or so.
As for that dreaded greenhouse gas, CO2,
atmospheric levels of which now exceed 400
parts per million (ppm), it is important to note that
paleological records show that every time CO2
levels have exceeded 300 ppm there has been
an ice age. Every time - without exception.
The same records show that there have been a
series of ice ages over the past 5 million years,
naturally occurring every 100,000 years, with
about 90,000 years of glaciation followed by
about 12,000 years of interglacial climate.
The last ice age ended about 12,000 years
ago. Clearly we are in line for the next period of
glaciation. But more about that later.
Suffice it to say that unless Al Gore has managed
to repeal a demonstrated law of nature, the
iceman cometh.
The befuddled Gore keeps blathering about how
the oceans are being heated by global warming,
instead of the warming being created by the
oceans, as the facts clearly show.
On his Web site <iceagenow.com>, Robert W.
Felix provides the following information about
ocean warming as a result of hydrothermic
activity under the seas.
*** "A new type of volcano may be heating up the
floor of the western Pacific Ocean," says an
article posted on National Geographic News and
on Yahoo. "Scientists suspect the new volcanoes
occur at cracks in tectonic plates caused by
stress as the plates slide past each other. A group
of small volcanoes called petit spot volcanoes has
been discovered far from the tectonic-plate
boundaries (like mid-oceanic ridges) that often
spawn volcanoes, earthquakes, and other
geologic activity.
"Geoscientist Naoto Hirano's team believes that
the source of these volcanoes is melted rock from
the upper mantle, which has been squeezed
through cracks in the tectonic plate above. This
type of [activity produces] tiny volcanoes, possibly
now active, on the old, cold subducting Pacific
plate,' said Hirano from his office at the Scripps
Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, California.
'This petit spot volcano theory suggests that this
type of eruption can occur wherever the oceanic
plate is flexed. These small volcanoes may be
widespread on ocean floors where the mantle just
under the crust is squeezed out by tectonic forces
when one plate moves under another, the
researchers explained.
"Dubbed "petit spots", these new types of
volcanoes are difficult to spot using satellite
technology. Specific geophysical and sampling
expeditions would have to be carried out in order
to locate them,' Hirano explained."
*** Scientists working in the southern Atlantic Ocean
have found a 407 degree centigrade hydrothermal
vent, the hottest yet known on an ocean floor.
Expedition leader Andrea Koschinsky of
International University in Bremen, Germany, and
her team found the hydrothermal vent just south of
the equator on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at a depth of
2,990 meters. The vent is located on the
Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where the African and South
American continental plates are moving apart at
the relatively sedate rate of 3.2 centimeter a year.
In the Pacific, by comparison, the Pacific and
Nazca plates are speeding apart at some 15
centimeters per year.
*** German-American researchers discovered more
hydrothermal activity at the Gakkel Ridge in the
Arctic Ocean than anyone ever imagined. The
Gakkel ridge is a gigantic volcanic mountain
chain stretching beneath the Arctic Ocean. With
its deep valleys 5,500 meters beneath the sea
surface and its 5,000 meter- high summits,
Gakkel ridge is far mightier than the Alps. Two
research icebreakers, the USCGC Healy from the
United States and the German PFS Polarstern,
joined forces in the international expedition
AMORE (Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge Expedition). In
attendance were scientists from the Max Planck
Institute for Chemistry and other international
institutions.
The scientists had expected that the Gakkel ridge
would exhibit "anemic" magmatism. Instead, they
found "surprisingly strong magmatic activity in the
west and the east of the ridge and one of the
strongest hydrothermal activities ever seen at mid-
ocean ridges." The Gakkel ridge extends about
1,800 kilometers beneath the Arctic Ocean from
north of Greenland to Siberia, and is the northern-
most portion of the mid-ocean ridge system. To
their surprise, the researchers found high levels of
volcanic activity. Indeed, magmatism was
"dramatically" higher than expected.
Hydrothermal hot springs on the seafloor were
also far more abundant than predicted. "We
expected this to be a hydrothermally dead ridge,
and almost every time our water measurement
instrument came up, they showed evidence of
hydrothermal activity, and once we even 'saw'
an active hot spring on the sea floor," said Dr.
Jonathan Snow, the leader of the research group
from the Max Planck Institute.
Remember, that "magmatism" is red hot magma
seeping up from the ocean floor. It's like putting
a burner under a pot of water.
In short, heated oceans are warming the globe
and setting up a scenario that includes among its
consequences more and increasingly violent
hurricanes, tornadoes, and blizzards.
In 1979, Genevieve Woillard, a pollen specialist in
France, concluded from detailed studies that the
shift from a warm, interglacial climate to ice age
conditions at the beginning of the last ice age,
some 100,000 years ago, took "less than 20
years". Her observations of the decline of
European forests led her to conclude we may be
in a similar period of rapid climatic change.
Research has shown that this 20-year period is
one in which Mother Nature wreaks havoc on
humanity.
If the unchallenged results of the work of Woillard
and others who studied past ice ages are any
indication of the pace of glaciation, once it starts,
the transition period is a mere 20 years or so. And
we may be well into that 20-year period now
Woillard estimated that the period before that final
20 years - when the earth began gearing up for
an end to the interglacial period - could be as
long as 150 years and as short as 75 years."
According to Woillard's studies and those of other
paleological climate researchers, the transition
between interglacial and glacial periods is one of
increasing violence - more volcanic eruptions,
storms, earthquakes, and other natural disasters.
We are being bombarded with horror stories about
how the arctic regions are warming and the polar
bears are disappearing (actually their numbers
have increased by some 20,000) but we are not
informed by Mr. Gore and his acolytes as to how a
warming arctic region can continue to send more
and more record breaking cold waves southward,
creating the incredibly frigid weather much of the
northern U.S. is shivering under.
If your refrigerator is running low on freon it will not
keep its contents cold. If the arctic is our refrigerator,
and the refrigerator is rapidly running out of coolant,
how can it create colder and colder weather fronts?
The mechanics here are simple. The earth is
getting warmer in some areas thanks to the heat
being given off by the seas - picture standing next
to a pot of boiling water - you'll feel the heat.
Stand next to a heated ocean and you'll feel the
warmth. That melting ice in part of the arctic
regions is probably the result of hydrothermal
activity in the Gakkel Ridge under the Arctic Ocean.
When that warm air coming north from the tropics
meets the frigid air coming south from the pole, it
creates violence. And the hotter the air from the
south and the colder the air from the north, the
more violent the collision will be. Tornadoes,
violent storms, and blizzards are some of the results.
This process feeds on itself. As the amount of
atmospheric moisture increases more
precipitation is sent poleward, resulting in more
snowfall to build heavier and heavier polar ice
packs which fail to decrease in summertime
because the cloud cover created by the
moisture-laden air transported from the tropics
prevents any thawing.
As the ice packs grow deeper and heavier, more
magma is squeezed out and sent toward the
equators, creating more volcanic activity, which
spews more and more volcanic ash into the upper
atmosphere, along with enormous quantities of
greenhouse gasses. This results in greater and
greater amounts of moisture-laden clouds being
sent poleward. And so on.
As the glaciation process continues, winters will
get longer and longer; that's colder air reaches
farther and farther toward the equator. Summers
will get shorter and shorter, and growing seasons
will slowly vanish.
Areas previously blessed with temperate climates
are transformed into subarctic regions, and the
subtropics turn colder and colder.
And all this can happen in a matter of a very few
years. So few, that the world may very well learn
that the interglacial period has been replaced by
the glaciation process before the end of the next
decade - or even earlier.
On his Web site, Bob Felix cites facts ignored or
lied about by the global warming alarmists. He
shows that despite their claims that the worlds
glaciers are melting, fully 75 percent are actually
growing.
In response to claims that oceans levels are
rising and threatening to drown New York City, he
, shows they are actually falling.
Finally, what mankind faces now is not glaciation
burying cities under miles of ice - that's tens of
thousands of years away. In our immediate future
is the beginning of the process which starts with a
bang - that 20-year interim period I think the
record shows we are now experiencing. The
effects will be more or less immediate, and there
is nothing we can do to stop it. If I'm correct in all
of this, we'll know it over the next couple of years.
