Ross Ice Shelf, Ice Bergs and Climate Change

 

Author: Lance Winslow

Recently we saw a runaway iceberg, which hit a tongue sticking out from the Ross Ice Shelf, everyone predicted a huge event, which would be seen from above by satellite. No such event could be seen and for good reason. Most of the ice berg was under water and obviously would hit first and it did on cue, wedging itself, so the event did take place but underwater as the surface of the iceberg never touched anything, yet the damage of the collision was severe and intense underneath judging by the break up of surrounding ice. It is interesting the predictive animation simulations were so quick to show us what was going to happen, yet never did. This is an example of bad modeling prediction running away with imagination when in actuality we had enough data to show exactly what had occurred in advance.

Right now we have seen weather intensification in the form of extreme weather in our Hemisphere, we have complete modeling of past Hurricanes and are extremely good at predicting Hurricanes now. We also have complete knowledge of what will happen in the event of a direct hit in New Orleans and the 12-foot seawall? But are all our predictive modeling of simulations of the demise of New Orleans correct? Well, in fact they probably are pretty correct as are our prediction of increasing rise of ocean levels as the atmosphere heats up.

Combining such data along with the vegetation build up at the mouth of the Mississippi River we see that merging of all this data shows that New Orleans is not long for this world. If we look at the river mouths of the largest rivers meeting the sea, we will see similarities to canyons and streams meeting lakes or connecting to slow flowing rivers. Patterns of erosion are everywhere.

In the middle of the desert you can see small flows turn into streams, to dry rivers to dry lake beds which have been there for centuries. It seems possible that we can put an equation to this if we are willing to build real life actual erosion labs and take that data and end-effect to show patterns.

These patterns will be similar to those in nature and thus formulas using current mathematics can be conceived and tested. When attempting to control or change nature it is often a very small first event, which changes things as the events unfold and as the pattern is set in motion. He who creates the first event and puts in the equation and motions thru levers of action maybe able to quantify and put pencil to paper to predict the end event. Using reverse engineering calculations of these methodologies we can take the current erosion picture to questimate the origin of the first event. Once we can do this we can see the past in the present pattern and thus we can see thru time unlocking ancient mysteries to our mother Earth. By understanding this process here at home we can in fact use this data to predict what happened in all those worlds we seek to discover in mankinds quest of the unknown to quench the thirst to boldly go where no man has gone before. Think out side the box humans.
