| Fig. 1 Where The Sea Level Changes Without The Mythological El Nino |
In the previous post it was pointed out that there are several countries, sea ports, and tide gauge station in the area of Fig. 2.
| Fig. 2 Where Santa Claus Fishes |
I mean the area where ancient fishermen sang hymns to their imagined child "El Nino", the area where Santa Claus is said to have given fish stories at "Christmas time".
Oceanographers who live in the world of measurements have taken in situ measurements in that area at both deep and shallow depths (The World According To Measurements - 12).
Today we take a look at an issue that impacts this area from far and near.
The science of sea level change and its causes has been offered to us since as far back as 1888:
"To our knowledge, Woodward (1888) was the first to demonstrate that the rapid melting of an ice sheet would lead to a geographically variable sea level change. Woodward (1888) assumed a rigid, non-rotating Earth, and therefore self-gravitation of the surface load was the only contributor to the predicted departure from a geographically uniform (i.e. eustatic) sea level rise. This departure was large and counter-intuitive. Specifically, sea level was predicted to fall within ∼2000 km of a melting ice sheet, and to rise with progressively higher amplitude at greater distances. The physics governing this redistribution is straightforward."
(On the robustness of predictions of sea level fingerprints). This area's sea level change can be. and is, impacted from far away.
And that happens unabated no matter what the for-profit media is peddling about the wind and water temperature on a given day.
But I digress.
Most of the tide gauge stations in the area shown in Fig. 2 were listed in the previous post in this series, but there was no detail presented at that time concerning any specific sea level change data, so today we address that issue a bit more.
The graph at Fig. 1 shows area-wide sea level change by combining all relevant zones into a single graph.
By relevant zones, I mean those that contain tide gauge stations and/or seaports which take note of and record those changes.
Today's appendices (Appendix Zone SLC Change, Appendix Ports And Stations) address that specific issue in graphic detail.
Those appendices show the sea level change on an individual zone basis, and like Fig. 1 show, the combined result when all of those relevant zones are blended together.
Watch the video about sea level fall and sea level rise below.
It is a major departure from the "Bathtub model" myth.

Suppression of valid science is horrible and widespread: "Dr Poulianos’ findings contradicted conventional views regarding human evolution and his research was suppressed. Dr Poulianos and his wife were physically attacked and injured in their home in 2012 and the culprits were never found. He and his team have been denied further access to the cave to complete their research and study, and the whereabouts of the skull is now unknown.
ReplyDeleteToday a sign sits outside the cave of Petralona stating that the skull found in the cave was 300,000 years old, and on Wikipedia today you will see references dismissing the evidence and trying to date the Petralona skull within acceptable parameters – between 160,000 and 240,000 years old.
Recently, Professor C.G. Nicholas Mascie-Taylor of the University of Cambridge sent a letter to the Ministry of Culture in Greece saying that the correct date of the skull is 700,000 years old and not 300,000. He has also challenged the government’s suppression of information regarding this incredible discovery. " (Ancient Origins).
