@still learning - the melting of ice off of Antarctica in such a short period of time will be a new phenomena, with a proportionately rapid rebound (unlike those in the past record) leading to significant increase of volcanic activity at tectonic divergent boundaries, and major earthquake activity at both divergent and convergent boundaries. So there's not much in the geological record to compare it to. Perhaps you can consider the rebound recently seen in California from the water loss there to give an idea: http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/08/21/us-usa-drought-west-idUSKBN0GL2AY20140821 The comparison ratio from California to Antarctica is about 1:100,000 (i.e. - multiply "slight" by 100,000).

I found this about True polar wander: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_wander True polar wander represents the shift in the geographical poles relative to Earth's surface, after accounting for the motion of the tectonic plates. This motion is caused by the rearrangement of the mantle and the crust in order to align the maximum inertia with the current rotation axis [2](fig.1). This is similar to a spinning top; when its rotation is disturbed, it slowly recovers and it will realign its rotation axis to its position of maximum inertia. The difference is that unlike Earth, the spinning top's mass distribution is constant through its volume over time. Evidence for true polar wander has been observed from the study of large apparent polar wander datasets which, when corrected for the motion of the magnetic pole,[3] display this polar wander. Modern polar wander can be evaluated from precise measurement using stars or satellite measurements, however filtering to remove the wobble of the Earth is required. I think it can happen if a volcano explodes or a super volcano is loading up. It is all started by mass being moved. So if ice melts and the melted water is moved we have a similar situation. Mass is moved and we get a true polar wander. That must be it..!? It looks like it is happening today: http://earthsky.org/earth/earth-is-undergoing-true-polar-wander-scientists-say German and Norwegian scientists have incorporated hotspots in Earth's mantle into a computer model being used to study true polar wander. They say their work established a stable reference frame for this study that lets them conclude Earth is undergoing true polar wander today. Earth IS UNDERGOING True Polar Wander https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKJTsKkOlJQ I don't see them mention melted ice but it must be working there too in an unknown growing scale. I may still be concerned about different patterns creating unpredictable tensions in the shell of the earth. It seems to me the pattern from the melted ice is unique and not just supporting other forces. |

Jakob wrote: Yes, happening today. Slowly. Quoting from that earthsky article: What's more, for the past 40 million years, the Earth's solid outer layers have been slowly rotating at a rate of 0.2 degrees every million years, according to these scientists. 0.2 degrees every million years. The subject of actual true polar wander is kind of interesting. Maybe important for folks trying to refine paleomagnetic data, in that the magnetic pole seems to not stray real far from the geographic pole, even through magnetic reversals. Maybe important for people trying to reconstruct the exact configuration of continental masses through hundreds of millions of years of plate tectonic motion. I don't see 0.2 degrees every million years of much importance to the subject of current climate change. Speed it up 100 times, still doesn't seem too important. If you're really concerned, immerse yourself in the subject, get to where you can treat the subject quantitatively and come up with some alarming numbers.

@still learning I don't see 0.2 degrees every million years of much importance to the subject of current climate change. Speed it up 100 times, still doesn't seem too important. How about 1 degree in 500 years..? That is very fast compared. 1 degree I got from you. The 500 years we can never be sure about. ( As I remember it the video used 2-300 years as an example. ) The wobble added is also unknown. It is not my field and I am not in the mood to run an alarm campain about it but I still think it can be enough to be very important. In this case I don't think it is so easy to say if the mass is insignificant or not. In my opinion just comparing size of masses and bring that to a conclusion will only make us look like incompetent idiots. For instance what is the mass of a bullet compared to a body. Insignificant..?? And what is the mass of a balancing weight on a wheel compared to the mass of the wheel..? What is the difference in ballast weight on a safe ship compared to one that sinks because of too little or too much ballast somewhere..? And what is the weight of the house compared to the dancers that made the dance-floor crash (if just one dancer had stayed of the floor it would not have happened )..? and so on.... Just the fact that Greenland is uplifted 3 centimeters per year ( up to 1 kilometer ) seems like a proof that we are messing around with the inside forces of the earth and I do not have the skill to say that it can not trigger something very ugly. What the water can trigger other places with its mass we may never be able to find out. If it for instance makes a tsunami much worse nobody will ever be able to proof it. Science can not give us all answers yet and I guess this is and will be a guessing zone for still a long time to come..? |

@still learning - you wrote If I have it right (may well not), you've convinced yourself that the rate of melt will be much faster than anybody in mainstream science expects. Yes, my experience with M2C2 (man-made climate change) literature is that most predictions are based upon the concept "if things continue at their current rate," or linear acceleration. In contrast, I believe that in the next 2 decades we will see exponential acceleration due to factors which are only beginning to come into play. For example, the nithane effect where the main GHG driver behind M2C2 gets transferred from CO2 to methane, then to nitrous oxide, and finally to water. Under an exponential scenario, the isostatic rebound will be much greater than predicted, with Antarctica rising by many, many meters before the end of this century. As the nithane effect is unknown in the geologic record, so too is this type of tectonic shift. Thus, there will be an unprecedented rise in both earthquake activity and intensity at convergent and divergent tectonic boundaries, as well as unprecedented volcanic activity and intensity at divergent boundaries.

There will not be any sudden release of methane due to the position of the methane sinks. They are either perma frost of the deep ocean floors, wel the sides of the continental shelves. Both of which would see the fringes being released and the rest happening if/as the temperature rose suficently. The deep ocean is never going to do this at all.

As we have seen that our environment is keeps on changing. No one can deny this. If there occurs environment changes, that result in increasing of problems in our surrounding. With a immense entry of natural disasters, warming and cooling periods, different kinds of weather patterns and much more, so people should to be aware of what kind of environmental problems our planet is facing.Environment destruction is often caused by humans is a global problem nowadays, and this is a becoming a big problem in today's world. By the year 2050, it is expected that the global human population is grow by 2 billion people, and thereby reaching a level of 9.6 billion people (Living Blue Planet 24). The various human effects on our Earth that can be observe in many different ways. A main of them is the temperature rise, and according to the study and report "The Changing Climate", the global warming that has been increasing on for the past 50 years is mainly because of human activities regularly. There is different variety of life that exist on Earth, its biological diversity, is commonly term as biodiversity. The number of various kinds of species of plants, animals, and microorganisms, the enormous diversity of genes in these species, there is a different ecosystems on the planet, such as deserts, rain forests and coral reefs are all part of a biologically diverse Earth. green house effect |

Ozone (O3) is a molecule that is easily made. Basically, all you do is take oxygen (O2) and shove energy into it. It doesn't matter what kind, heat, light, electricity, whatever. The natural ozone layer gains its energy primarily from UV light striking the upper atmospheric oxygen. Ozone is an unstable molecule. Once the energy source is removed, ozone will decay back into oxygen over the space of a few hours. The biggest risk to ozone is ozone. Each day, the sun builds up the ozone layer. Each night, the ozone layer decays away. If the night were to last more than 24 hours, the ozone would disappear completely. When the sun rises, the ozone layer is again rebuilt. Since ozone reflects HF radio waves, this is an easy pattern to monitor. Holes occur at the poles during the winter of that pole. No sun, no ozone, no big deal. The size and shape of these holes varies somewhat depending on upper air winds. Low level ozone can be produced in the heat of a piston engine such as a car. This ozone, if it comes in contact with unburned hydrocarbons, will produce smog. Modern cars reduce the ozone they produce using a system known as the exhaust gas recirculation system, or EGR (that little valve that needs replacing from time to time). This system reduces the burn temperature and reduces the unburned hydrocarbons by feeding the exhaust gases up into the induction system for a second chance at burning. The catalytic converter takes care of what's left. Thus today, we have a LOT less smog. Another source of ozone is the typical thunderstorm. It's that 'fresh rain smell' you get just before the rain hits. That is ozone dragged down in the storm's downdrafts at the leading edge of the storm. Several types of air fresheners are ozone generators. So are the smoke eaters in bars and casinos. Ozone is easy to make. It destroys itself. Things like loose chlorine atoms are extremely reactive. They never get up to the ozone layer to react with it. Things like CFC's are heavier than air, and do not react with ozone. Hope this clears up a few misconceptions about ozone for you.
