WOD Layers Revisited - 3

Riding The Big Wave

Large and small ocean waves are the recreational source for many physical activities, but you may not know that they have other impacts..

Ocean waves generate tiny seismic events (Increasing ocean wave energy observed in Earth’s seismic wavefield since the late 20^th century).

As the sea level rises or falls those events are impacted, but the increasing or decreasing weight of seawater also causes impacts (Proof of Concept - 11, Global Warming & Volcanic Eruptions, Is A New Age Of Pressure Upon Us?).

Today's posts show that sea level changes are likely to continue to cause, and to increase, seismic activity (GR LINE SLF-DNA, GR LINE SLC-DNA, GR LINE 3-COLOR).

The seriousness of sea level change is explained in the videos below by Professor Mitrovica.
