[Public Email] ( Possible Dangers From Global Warming)

--------------------------------------------------------------- The following message was sent to you via AVO Web Email System: --------------------------------------------------------------- Name: JONATHAN BARDSLEY Email Address: jonny5bard(a)hotmail.com Subject: ( Possible Dangers From Global Warming) Message: 08:05 16/10/2012 Global warming is helping to melt earths ice-caps which is causing the sea levels to rise. This is moving mass weight which is creating different pressures on different areas of the tectonic plates. The different pressures would have an effect on the tectonic plates and move them which is what causes earthquakes and volcanoes. The pacific ocean is vast, if the sea level raised by a foot, could you imagine how much extra weight would be pushing down on the tectonic plates in that area with how heavy water is, it has to be effecting the tectonic plates. Its probable the reason the ring of fire surrounds the pacific ocean. This is not the only possible danger from global warming. Scientists know the earths axis tilts which is the cause of the ice-age, but the cause of the tilt is unknown. The sun and moon effects earth by pulling earths oceans so there is a powerful gravitational pull on earth. The pole's ice-caps would be like weights on a set of scales and if one of these weights were to disappear, the other would become heavier to the aliened gravitational pull of the sun and moon. North pole ice-cap is in the ocean, there is salt in the ocean which raises the temperature, this would help to melt the ice a lot quicker than the south pole ice-cap. The south pole ice-cap is on land and the salt in the ocean wouldn't have any effect on the ice. This would mean the north pole ice would melt and disappear a lot sooner than the south pole ice, which would mean the south pole would become heavier to the aliened sun and moon gravitational pull. The south pole would be pulled towards the sun and moon while at the same time the north would tilt away. This would cause the next ice-age. The build up of ice at the north pole and the melting of the ice at the south pole with it being closer to the sun now, would be extremely fast, this is mass weight moving about in a short period of time. This would cause bigger earthquakes and volcano's and would be more frequent. I have put a lot of thought into this theory and everything could react in the way I have said. I also believe earths oceans help to keep the earth balance. Reasons to support theory, California fault line, the west side is moving north and I would say the extra weight from the rise of the sea levels at the equator would push on the west side of the fault line. I also believe India is being pushed north by the Indian ocean, and causing the mounting range were mount Everist is, to be unstable and is the cause of the rasing of Tubet . If you was to look at earths oceans and imagin that extra weight is pushing on the tectonic plates and which way these plates are being pushed, you should see it all fit. I would love to work on this with your help.

Hello Ian - Well, the Little Sitkin sensors are more better seismometers than anemometers would be. :) AVO seismologists also have some other ways of viewing and analyzing data to help tease out the seismic signal from wind noise.

Hello Ray - Yes, we noticed the activity and the new hut, also. We're trying to figure out who owns it and what it's for. Thank you, Cheryl -------- Ray Sypher wrote: Sirs; I have noted your excellent web-cam system for the AK volcanoes. I am fascinated at the beauty of the diff. locations(but not when foggy or snowing). My question involves the recent activity close-by the MT. Cleveland camera n.e. of Nikolski. I was shocked to see 3 men milling in front of the camera, knowing that(from wikipedia) that is probably 20% of the inhabitants of the area. So... picking mushrooms????? Anyhow, the next day we have this pc of eqpt. there(ultra-modern BBQ?)and the following day what appears to be(from the portion that's viewable).... a protected beacon??? I am certainly curious but don't need to know if it's some sort of secret device. Thanks for any information you can shed.

Hello Randy - The map is working fine for us - maybe a browser/cache issue on your end? The map can be slow to load - which flubs up the browser sometimes and puts pieces in odd locations. Thanks for your patience and observations, Cheryl -------- Randy D.

Hi George - Last I knew, our GE one wasn't working, but this page gives you a map with all our stuff on it: https://www.avo.alaska.edu/map/ (click on items in the legend to display them in the map - it opens with nothing selected.) Hope it is helpful! -cheryl -------- George Wilkinson II wrote: Hello; I remember a Google Earth function for showing the monitoring stations, both camera and quake, each allowing one to click on a location and get recorder data, et cetera.
