duncan61 ★★★★★ (2021)	Hi guys been away but now I am back.I have been measuring the sea levels locally mainly Fremantle harbour and areas of tidal Swan river.If they sea was 200mm higher as is claimed on the high tides it would flood the left bank and the freeway at South Perth would go under. .Is this 200mm gain all the time or does it go away when I am not looking because the water marks on the rocks are still the same? .Anyone that makes this claim of sea level rise should really go have a look for themselves before believing satellite data,heard a rumour a fair few are losing there orbit.Oops .I am aware I am taking a simple view to the AGW/CC debate but if its already happening why is the sea is not rising.Why is it happening to someone else and not me.I feel ripped off.I want my share might go start a bushfire

Into the Night★★★★★ (21599)	Satellites can't track it to this accuracy anyway. They have no valid reference point. Land moves, you see. It even has a 'tide'. Your local measurements compared to your own reference point on your bit of land is about as accurate as anyone is gong to get, and that's only good for that point. It is not possible to measure a global sea level. Edited on 13-03-2020 18:33

Xadoman ★★★★☆ (1035)	ITN, a question about tides. When the land or water is moving due to tides it causes friction and eventually heat. Does moon and earth lose some kinetic and rotational energy in this process and does it mean the moon could eventually collapse on earth?

allecnarf ☆☆☆☆☆ (5)	What you have to appreciate is that we live on the crust of a molten sphere. That crust moves. At a single location it is very difficult to determine if the ocean is rising or the land is sinking. In recent years we are able to calculate ocean rise using satellite data, but before that we had to average all the tidal data that was available. At the onset of using satellite data there was relatively good agreement between these 2 methods, but I cannot attest to that now. J.A. Coutts

keepit ★★★★★ (3060)	Rather than totally relying on measurements, rely on scientific principles. For example, water expands when it gets warmer. That's how it is now with the oceans. Also, greenhouse gasses slow down the flow of thermal energy which results in temps going up, regardless of how accurate out sensors are.

The satellites, you see, vary in altitude somewhat as they orbit the Earth (different density of masses the satellite passes over changes its orbit slightly). While satellites can and do reference their altitudes against a land based station (located on Boulder, CO), that station too is on land that is moving. So satellites are no better at measuring sea level than a tidal station. The Parrot Killer Debunked in my sig. - tmiddles Google keeps track of paranoid talk and i'm not on their list.

I think there still is some tidal friction because water will move out of ideal position for example because of weather or for example some giant volcano erupts . So there is a friction and heat due to tide and that energy must come from somewhere. The moon will start to come closer to the earth and it eventually collapses to earth. As you said the sun will become red giant before all of this but this is just a theoretical thought what would happen to moon and earth eventually if the sun would not turn into red giant.

Xadoman wrote: As you said the sun will become red giant before all of this but this is just a theoretical thought what would happen to moon and earth eventually if the sun would not turn into red giant. Of course. The Moon will simply reach a stable orbit and stay there. At that time, it's orbital period will be approximately 47 of our current days. Our day will also length, to become 47 times the current day. Thus, the Moon will stay in the same spot in the sky, just as Earth stays in the same spot in the sky when standing on the Moon. There will be no more tides either. The Earth and the Moon will remain tidally locked to each other. This has already happened with Pluto and it's moon.

Xadoman ★★★★☆ (1035)	Weather is driven by the Sun. That is energy. Volcanoes are driven by the interior of the Earth. That is energy. This energy moves water or land out of ideal tidal position. For example with water the tidal forces cause a bulge. Without tidal forces there would not be such a bulge. Lets say due to weather or smth the bulge is somewhat flattened( out of ideal position) Tidal forces will move the water or land back to ideal tidal position. There is friction( causes heat ) in this process and that energy must come from somewhere. The moon will start to get closer to the earth and eventually collapses onto the earth( assuming sun will not turn into red giant ) Edited on 14-03-2020 01:49

Duncan, the Climate Change term you seek is "Stadium Wave" and very simply explains this phenomenon. It is found in The MANUAL: Stadium Wave: noun A Global Warming edict, written in an unintelligible tongue speculated to be a Latin derivative, issued by Oracle from the Climate Change "Holy Sea" known as the IPCC prophesying and explaining the current multi-decade hiaitus of Global Warming mythology. The Stadium Wave Prophecy: "A hypothesized low-frequency climate signal propagating across the Northern Hemisphere through a network of synchronized climate indices was identified in previous analyses of instrumental and proxy data. The tempo of signal propagation is rationalized in terms of the multidecadal component of Atlantic Ocean variability – the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation. Through multivariate statistical analysis of an expanded database, we further investigate this hypothesized signal to elucidate propagation dynamics. The Eurasian Arctic Shelf-Sea Region, where sea ice is uniquely exposed to open ocean in the Northern Hemisphere, emerges as a strong contender for generating and sustaining propagation of the hemispheric signal. Ocean-ice-atmosphere coupling spawns a sequence of positive and negative feedbacks that convey persistence and quasi-oscillatory features to the signal. Further stabilizing the system are anomalies of co-varying Pacific-centered atmospheric circulations. Indirectly related to dynamics in the Eurasian Arctic, these anomalies appear to negatively feed back onto the Atlantic's freshwater balance. Earth's rotational rate and other proxies encode traces of this signal as it makes its way across the Northern Hemisphere." Note on the Stadium Wave Prophesy: Scientists are already working on translating this beautiful and mysterious language. . I don't think i can [define it].

Xadoman ★★★★☆ (1035)	Xadoman why you all hijacking my thread bro.Can you explain this tidal friction to me.Are you suggesting that tidal movement creates warming.The bay of Fundy has massive tides I doubt its warming anything. Sorry did not ment to hijack the thread. With every moving if there is friction there is going to be heat. For example the wheel bearing of the car heats up during driving. This friction eventually eats up all the kinetic energy a body has. If you take out the gear and let the car roll free then it is going to stop soon because of the friction. The kinetic energy transforms to heat. I also thinked about the tidal forces in my example and I think ITN is right that this friction does not cause loosing the kinetic energy of the moon and earth. It is just like rising the stone into the air and letting it fall. The earth does not loose kinetic energy in this process. But I am pretty sure that vacuum is not perfect and has small particles and debris and that causes a drag to the moon and therefore the moon will slow down bit by bit and eventually it would collapse with earth.

As a result, the Earth's days are getting just very slightly longer. The Moon gains energy and moves further away also. Eventually the two will be tidally locked as I've described, in about 50 billion years or so. Of course the Sun will turn into a red giant in only about 6-7 billion years.

Water and pipes follow Ohm's law, just as wires and electrons do. Just as in a wire, no hose or pipe is 100% efficient at handling the flow. There is friction on the walls. In both cases, this provides resistance to the flow. Where there is current, and where there is pressure, and where there is resistance, there will be heating there. Every brook, river, stream, hose, pipe, etc. generates a bit of heat. Some of that heat goes into the walls of the pipe itself, some goes into the water. Water, though, takes a lot of heat to change its temperature by one degree. The amount of heating involved here is not zero, but it's not enough to register on anything but the most sensitive of thermometers. This of course means every ocean wave that crashes upon the shore also generates a tiny bit of heat. Tides will also, but not as much as what I've described, since water is a fluid. It can flow around itself without much friction at all. It isn't zero, but for all practical purposes it can be considered a zero. All of the energy to move water around comes from the Sun and Earth's rotational inertia. None of it comes from the Moon, though where the Moon is in relation to Earth's surface gives the timing for our tides. The Moon doesn't orbit the Earth. They orbit each other. That center of orbit is about 2900 miles from the center of the Earth (inside Earth). This point is called the barycenter of that orbit. It is one reason why gravity on Earth's surface (or just above it, like in a satellite orbit) is not consistent or uniform. The result of this inconsistency is tides, two per day as Earth rotates beneath the imbalanced forces affecting it's surface. As the Moon moves further away, it is stealing energy from the Earth. Like a brake, Earth's rotational energy slows down. Earth's day becomes just a bit longer. Eventually, the Moon will reach an orbit that is slow enough to stay in the same spot in the sky, just as Earth's rotational speed reaches a point slow enough to match it. At that point, there is no more the Moon can steal from Earth, and there will be no more tides. Earth's day will be 47 times longer than what it is now, and the Moon will take 47 of our current days to make one orbit. In other words, the Moon will orbit at the same period as our single day; both 47 days longer than our day length is now. The two remain tidally locked like this, forever (except the Sun of course will destroy Earth and the Moon long before this happens).

So does passing over ice as opposed to water. So do the positions of each tectonic plate as they move about. These differences are tiny, and they average out so you can keep a satellite in a stable orbit until it dies, but the satellites altitude away from Earth will vary just a bit as well. It is possible to put a satellite in geostationary orbit to minimize this, but even they are affected by moving material underneath them. Remember gravity is proportional to mass. Less dense material has less mass in a given volume. duncan61 wrote: What surprised me was there was no allowance for them crashing in to each other as the chances of something the size of a car banging in to each other in space is extremely unlikely. Quite true. There is very little up there to begin with, and it's all moving the same direction (toward the east), since it's a lot easier to fling a satellite off the Earth favoring the natural spin of the Earth. The only difference is how much north/south component in an orbit we give it, and the altitude of that orbit. duncan61 wrote: I was a boy when Skylab fell to earth in 1979 near Esperance.

Failing this, they will often turn to that other argument, which I call the Magick Bouncing Photon argument, where they deny the 2nd law of thermodynamics and the Stefan-Boltzmann law.

Since there are fewer tidal stations along the northern edge of this plate (which are showing lower tides than before), they just average 'em all together and call it 'sea rise'. Obviously, statistical math does not allow the use of biased data like this. The Parrot Killer Debunked in my sig. - tmiddles Google keeps track of paranoid talk and i'm not on their list.

Xadoman ★★★★☆ (1035)	If they are sent a long way out to orbit they can stay there till they stop working however if their orbit is closer to the Earth they need to be boosted out near the equator as the Earths gravitational pull will diminish the orbit. Atmospheric drag diminishes the orbit. The vacuum is not completely empty. Eventually they all fall to the earth, but it could take millions or billions of years.

duncan61 ★★★★★ (2021)	From memory some are sent 30,000 kms out and they require maintenance but the ones sent out 45,000 plus do there own orbit forever as they are out the influence of the Earths gravitational pull.He was a fascinating chap and I listened intently to his dialogue.He had helped put 57 in to space at the time.

There is always earths gravitational pull. Gravity does not stop cold turkey at some point. Also the atmosphere does not stop cold turkey. The atmosphere gets thinner and thinner but there are particles at 45000 which cause drag if they collide with sateliite. There is friction and it causes heat. This heat comes at the expence of kinetic energy. All the satellites would collapse eventually to the earth.

That site is full-on Global Warming worship on bent knee. Bogus science in pursuit of the Church of Non-Catastrophic Global Warming. I don't think i can [define it].

No, they ARE in the influence of Earth's gravitational pull. Otherwise they wouldn't orbit Earth.

Xadoman ★★★★☆ (1035)	Material in space does not cause drag. There is also an electromagnetic drag. We know that every object above absolut zero emits electomagnetic waves. Those waves interact with other waves and materials and cause there a change in magnetic field , orientation of dipoles etc etc. This comes at the expence of kinetic energy. The satellite will eventually slow down and collapse to the earth.

I am going to quote Einstein: Radiation will exert pressure on both sides of the plate. The forces of pressure exerted on the two sides are equal if the plate is at rest. However, if it is in motion, more radiation will be reflected on the surface that is ahead during the motion (front surface) than on the back surface. The backward acting force of pressure exerted on the front surface is thus larger than the force of pressure acting on the back. Hence, as the resultant of the two forces, there remains a force that counteracts the motion of the plate and that increases with the velocity of the plate. We will call this resultant 'radiation friction' in brief."

duncan61 ★★★★★ (2021)	[img][/img] [img][/img] I was wrong.The sea level has gone up 200mm in Fremantle according to the tide gauges but it is over 160 years so no wonder I could not pick it up in my lifetime.I am not going to pick up a few millimetres a year.While I was doing my research I came across some good stuff.The Satellite data has been modified and does not compare with the actual tide readings across the world Attached image:
