I get the part about snow melts when it warms up but why didn’t it melt in spain and did in Alaska? Why didn’t Spain warm up? Why was there 3 miles of ice there and Alaska none?
Spain was warmer.
It didn’t melt in Spain even though Spain was warmer than Alaska, for the same reason the pile of snow in the parking lot didn’t melt but the one inch of snow on my lawn did.
N8N8N8N, what, as you understand it, is the definition of a desert? Please do not elaborate on the answer; just tell us what properties a region must have for you to consider it a desert.
lack of precipitation. WHich has abolutely nothing to do why there was an ice cap in Spain and none in alaska the ocean did not freeze in the west.
The Arctic Ocean between the huge ice sheets of America and Eurasia was not frozen throughout, but like today probably was only covered by relatively shallow ice, subject to seasonal changes and riddled with icebergs calving from the surrounding ice sheets. According to the sediment composition retrieved from deep-sea cores there must even have been times of seasonally open waters.[7]

The damn snowfall in Alaska does not matter its a non issue. Spain had 3 miles of ice on it alaska and the Arctic ocean had none. It does not matter how much snow is in your back yard. It was warmer in Alaska HOW because it was further South than it is today its just that simple.
Spain was warmer and had a 3 mile ice cap… Why does that statement make no sense to me? Doe it not make more sense that Spain was at the north pole at the time and Alaska was further south? Surely you can see the logic in that.
Put England at the north pole and Spain is covered in ice and Alaska is where Japan is now No ice in Alaska icecap in Spain. Snowfall will determine the thickness of the icecap not the temperature.
You continue to show that you don’t understand basic climatology (ie that there exist deserts at high latitudes and locations of high precipitation at low latitudes, examples of higher temperatures at higher latitudes and lower temperatures and lower latitudes, as well as examples of higher glaciation or snow fall/retention at lower latitudes compared to examples at higher latitudes). But all of that is moot anyways – your theory is easily testable and is shown to be wrong. OK? Magnetic north moves at ~50km per year, meaning that according to your theory satellites (to say nothing of stars/planets whose motion we track with great accuracy) should be seen to uniformly systematically drift off their orbit ~50km per year. This is not observed. Your theory is falsified. Deal with it. If you were interested in the truth, you would accept this rather than clinging ever more desperately to your theory in the face of contradictory evidence.
Why is it easier to believe that the continents are bouncing around like Lotto balls than it is to believe that Spain got more snow than Alaska in its current location?
Georgia recently got a lot more snow than England despite being much further south. By your argument that shouldn’t be possible unless Georgia had migrated somewhere north of Greenland.
That statement could be ended after the word “understand” and it would probably be accurate.

I say the earth was at a different angle the what is isnow
[/QUOTE]
You’re right. But what you don’t grasp is (1) the rotational axis relative to Earth was the same as it is now, and (2) back then the axis was on its side. So all the snow fall and ice cap in Alaska fell off into space.
You are a bad man.
:bows:
It’s not like I didn’t warn anybody.
I understand inversion those are isolated events that take place ocasionally and for short periods. does not explain the lack of sea ice in the western arctic. Drift id 50kn per year but you idea that the gps systems navagting off the magnetic pole is false. Directions on earth ar taken bu compass on magnetic north declanated at defferent longitiueds to indicate true north. GSP systems orientate off true north and the overlaying grid to accomodate navagation three readings triangulate your position on the globe the earth could be sideways and true north would not change magnetic and celestial would.
Your talking about 1 bad winter I’m talking about 30,000 of them in a row with no summers. hardly a good compairison. And snow relates to precipitation they were both cold just rained more white stuff in georgia.
Ahhh now ya know your making headway when the argument of God or aliens get thrown into the mix to facilitate action. Can’t explain it make somthing up. Who can argue with the aliens flipped the world and the snow fell off. I can’t prove that didn’t happen so there for you must be right. :smack:
You’re the one who brought up deities and aliens. I never asserted how the rotational axis moved with respect to distant stars.
And in reply to you replying to Gyrate – how do you know that for 30,000 years there was never a season known to us as “summer”? Just because summer was skipped one year in modern times doesn’t mean it was skipped 30k times in a row.
That explains it.
Don’t worry; global warming will have your water boiling for dinner tonight.
See, this is where you are totally, absolutely, and in all other ways, incorrect.
It is not true that there was no summer during the Ice Ages.
That and the Immanuel Velikovsky Compendium (26 Volumes) subscription the OP apparently had as a child.
Incomprehensible. But funny.
Your suggesting these 3 mile icecaps formed in winter and melted each year? We went over the 30 miles of snow needed to make 3 miles of ice… and average 1/4 mile deep of snow each day not to mention it has to compace into ice before spring.??? There was no summerit never got above freezing thats why its an ice age no heat for 30,000 years.
