Explosive Underwater Volcanoes Were A Major Feature Of 'Snowball Earth' - senona - 05-22-2016 Quote:Around 720-640 million years ago, much of the Earth's surface was covered in ice during a glaciation that lasted millions of years. Explosive underwater volcanoes were a major feature of this 'Snowball Earth', according to new research led by the University of Southampton. "Extensive underwater volcanism during ridge spreading led to rapid alteration of volcanic deposits and major changes in ocean chemistry"
For the global warming fanatics, please read this part again.... ".....This locked the planet into a 'Snowball Earth' state until carbon dioxide released from ongoing volcanic activity warmed the atmosphere sufficiently to rapidly melt the ice cover. " Just a little lesson in the natural evolution of Planet Earth Quote:During the breakup of Rodinia, tens of thousands of kilometres of mid-ocean ridge were formed over tens of millions of years. The lava erupted explosively in shallow waters producing large volumes of a glassy pyroclastic rock called hyaloclastite. As these deposits piled up on the sea floor, rapid chemical changes released massive amounts of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus into the ocean. Interesting And see, just goes to show that Man is not to blame for every little change that has to with Mother Earth Yes, governments like to play with their weather manipulation/geo-engineering toys Which we have no idea what the long term effects of that will be But basically, Mother Nature will change and evolve on Her own, whether Man is here or not As this article clearly shows RE: Explosive Underwater Volcanoes Were A Major Feature Of 'Snowball Earth' - guohua - 05-22-2016 Right, Right,,, and This Gave Us Weather,,,,,,, But seriously Senona, there's no talking to these people, they've already bought their CCCP RE: Explosive Underwater Volcanoes Were A Major Feature Of 'Snowball Earth' - 727Sky - 05-22-2016 Quote:In a study published Thursday in Science, researchers say the new map is at least twice as accurate as the previous version assembled nearly 20 years ago even though it can only resolve features that are a mile high and bigger.
