pop = bob

https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/15/science/camp-century-secret-arctic-base-cold-war/index.html

I put up the article here in case it gets removed from the web (I have seen this happen on more than one occasion. 

This article is interesting for several reasons: 

First at one point the article states that snowfall each year is greater than melt, and so the glacier is growing (at least on top).  This seems to challenge the predominant thought out there— that glaciers are melting.  But why is this glacier getting bigger on top, … leading to the station being under a lot more snow and ice today, … than when it was first constructed?  Is it possible that the glaciers are melting/shrinking from below— at ground level?  I remember reading an article stating that melt water existing beneath a glacier exists,… so why…, perhaps a combination of weight and warmth of the earth… maybe its a result of the friction caused by the outer edge of our North American and Eurasian plates still descending via isostatic adjustment and so rubbing against adjacent plates?  Heat can transmit through rock.   Note this article: https://www.arcticwwf.org/the-circle/stories/omg-greenlands-glaciers-are-melting-from-below/

So then, if this is the case, then when the final isostatic adjustment “POP” occurs, … and so no more mega friction, and no more heat transmitting through the earths crust, then the glaciers will begin to grow once again and we will enter into a new glacial period and our interglacial period will end … for another approximate 20,000 years.  Am I correct ?! 

The other thing I found interesting is that the ice core (first one ever) revealing 400,000 year old seeds shows that Greenland was free of glaciers 400,000 years ago.  So in the past 400,000 years though, the Greenland ice sheet didn’t melt completely… because otherwise plants would have grown once again.  So why? What’s the change— the difference in the last 400,000 years that prevents this glacier ice from melting completely as it did 400,000 years ago?

Having said all that, the BIGGER problem still remains— the North American and Eurasian techtonic plates at the edges are still resettling as a result of isostatic adjustment, and as the center of these plates where the long gone glaciers had once sat continue to rebound (as they are doing, especially further north) then so will the edges continue to fall (into the ocean).  That means a lot of cities will perish… and if it happens suddenly —with a “POP” as the inner twin world have brought to my/our attention, the equal and opposite reaction will occur around the edges of the plates— an equal “pop”, but in reverse —a “bob”… and many millions of lives lost if we don’t take proactive measures.
