Catastrophic after-flood shifts ping ;o)

geologist Yang Wang was surprised to find thick layers of ancient lake sediment filled with plant, fish and animal fossils typical of far lower elevations and warmer, wetter climates.

What geologist would be surprised? I am not. I found horn coral in Montana at 8K feet.

"Global climate change? Or, tectonic change?""

This guy obviously has not been paying attention. As the great Obama has explained to us, NOW is the moment that the oceans begin to recede and the planet begins to heal itself. A unique moment in all of history.

Thanks again decimon.

Florida State University geologist Yang Wang was surprised to find thick layers of ancient lake sediment filled with plant, fish and animal fossils typical of far lower elevations and warmer, wetter climates... Paleo-magnetic study determined the sample's age (a very young 2 or 3 million years old)... Major tectonic changes on the Tibetan Plateau may have caused it to attain its towering present-day elevations -- rendering it inhospitable to the plants and animals that once thrived there -- as recently as 2-3 million years ago, not millions of years earlier than that, as geologists have generally believed... "Establishing an accurate history of tectonic and associated elevation changes in the region is important because uplift of the Tibetan Plateau has been suggested as a major driving mechanism of global climate change over the past 50-60 million years," said Yang, an associate professor in FSU's Department of Geological Sciences and a researcher at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory.

Global warming is BS. ['Civ takes bows as the audience tosses flowers]

"Many of the places we've visited in Tibet are now deserts, and yet we found those thick deposits of lake sediments with abundant fossil fish and shells," Yang said. "This begs the question: What came first and caused the disappearance of those lakes? Global climate change? Or, tectonic change?"

Elsewhere -- Antarctic fossils of temperate plant species which can't survive there, a bit more than 2 million years old.

Catastrophism will have its day; wait, you’ll see.

Dramatic climate change caused by sudden tectonic uplift???

Evidence of a Genesis flood?
