climate change making volcanos?
if anything..... volcanos may help make climate change
these folks sound like their got their asses screwed on backwards
ha
A couple of things here. Iceland sits on the mid-Atlantic rift where continental tectonic plates (North American and Euroasian) are pushed apart by new magma from beneath the earth’s crust. Several years ago a new volcano burst forth off the coast of Iceland when none had been found before. As that magma comes out, the land above could be expected to rise, with or without glaciers.
Now Iceland’s glaciers may be melting due to volcanic heat from below or residual warming from the “little ice age,” or just temporarily melting until the next round of solar radiation decreases. But to attribute Iceland’s rise to glacial melting and then connect that to climate change (which everyone knows is manmade /sar) is a step too far.
"Our research makes the connection between recent accelerated uplift and the accelerated melting of the Icelandic ice caps,” said Kathleen Compton of the University of Arizona, a geoscientist and one of the paper’s co-authors, in a statement."
I believe causal causality is not proof of an underlying scientific principle. For example, "if it's raining I will get wet" is true, it doesn't mean "if I'm wet it must be raining" is also true - I could be taking a shower or swimming.
And to think that globull warming alarmists would look us as if were were hopelessly backward if we attributed half of what they say is caused by globull warming to God instead.
I would believe magnetic pole shifts driving volcanism as well as earthquakes.
Not climate change.
