Bifurcating asymmetric ripple moulds, typically parallel to the shoreline of large river systems. These ripples are indicative of shallow water and are abundant throughout the 500mya Lake Frome Group, comprising the Moodlatana Formation, Balcoracana Formation, Pantapinna Sandstone,& Grindstone Range Sandstone. Photo taken in the Grindstone Range, Northern Flinders Ranges, South Australia.
Not So Apologetic
A look at critical thinking, geology & politics. I am not so apologetic when it comes to catastrophism and the state of fear that seems so obstructive to rationality. From a geologist's perspective, I examine Professor Carey's expanding earth alternative to plate tectonics, and review both the history of the idea and the scientific evidence available to date. There is also an assessment of the potential biological and technological impact of a future magnetic reversal. In another article, I examine the consequences of climate change based on an actualistic assessment of geological history. I have also calculated the photosynthetic deficit resulting from deforestation and I compare this with other anthropogenic contributions to atmospheric carbon dioxide.
