This is what gives me pause over Global Warming/Climate Change; every 50yrs or so, we (humans) act like we know everything and act on those assumptions. We can't even figure out what to feed ourselves (butter is bad/margarine is good, margarine is bad/butter is good!) and yet through computer models we are going to guesstimate a solution to what may or may not be a problem? Geez, humans think a lot of themselves...

>>17878584
they can accidentally kill you if you get too close to their tail. whip you a good 10-20 feet lower, knock the breath out of you, knock you out, etc. The lifting pulls you in and the lowering of the tail knocks you down

>>17878665

Well fuck. You just solved it. You're so fucking smart. Good job. Tell those fucking retard scientists that they wasted their lives studying the climate. What a bunch of dumb fucks hahaha. Congrats!

>>17878665
Earth gets 1370 watts per meter squared energy from the sun. There is no other source of energy on the surface of the earth which is significant (for comparison the Earth's core delivers .6 watts per meter squared, 20,000 times less energy than the sun). The Earth's average albedo is .3

Type that in to the Steffan-Boltzmann equation
http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/thermo/stefan.html

and you get the effective radiating temperature of the Earth at 255 degrees kelvin. Or about 33 degrees TOO LOW. The world is a frozen iceball and we all die. The extra heat comes from the fact that while the incoming radiation from the sun passes easily through the Earth's atmosphere the outgoing radiation does not. Some of that radiation is captured by gases in the atmosphere (so called greenhouse gases) primarily water vapor (about 85%) Carbon Dioxide (about 10%) and methane and other minor gases as the rest. If you double CO2 you WILL increase the temperature by about 3 degrees, no debate. We've known this for 120 years.

We don't concern ourselves about water vapor because water vapor has a residence time of about a week. Methane's residence time is about a year. And carbon dioxide's residence time is in CENTURIES. Once you put CO2 into the atmosphere it ain't coming out again for a long long time.

Carbon-14 is radioactive. It's half life is about 5700 years. A million year old piece of wood will have 0% C-14. When you burn it, it releases no C-14. We can monitor atmospheric C-14 and see that it's percentage is DECREASING. The only way you can do that is by burning oil, gas, and coal. Burning your crops won't do it. Sticking Jews in an oven won't do it. Your grandmother's nasty burnt casserole won't do it. The only way to reduce the percentage of C-14 in the atmosphere is burning fossil fuels.

So we know goddamned well where the C02 is coming from. It's man made. There is no argument anymore.

Climate change may not be spoopy, but it's starting to get scary
I'm a hardcore cyclist all year round and this is what I've concluded over the past several years keeping track of the summer temps
>2013
June, July felt normal, the beginning of August, scorching but expected
>2014
June felt normal, patches of scorching days in July (a bit odd), first week of August (smoking hot as usual)
>2015
Beginning of June had patches of scorching days (kinda weird), July was okay, August was okay
>2016
End of June up until now, July 4th, scorching as fuck. I've never experienced this (not on a day-to-day basis). If it's this bad now, by the time August gets here, we're fucked. Every other day, record-breaking news articles of kids and animals being left in cars dying.

I swear my balls felt like eggs boiling over the stove yesterday in this heat. This shit is not even normal at all. The near future is fucked if we don't get the U.S. and China to chill the fuck out with their fossil fuel emissions.

I'm not a climate change denier, but the qualitative assessment by one person in one area over 4 years isn't really the sort of thing you bring out to convince people. Post NOAA data on ocean temperatures. Post glacial measurements. Post coral surveys. The evidence is there, and it's solid. When you rely on anecdotes, the deniers go "Oh he's upset because it's hot in the summer. He thinks it must be real."

Geophysics =/= statistical analysis of health. Plus you could use that logic for any area of knowledge, we don't know what medicines are the best so therefore we can't be sure of the mysteries of the two stroke engine, we don't know how certain proteins fold thus the result of the battle of hastings is still kind of up in the air.

Trying to compare different areas of knowledge to make a general statement about man's total knowledge isn't a useful exercise, we're way ahead in some areas and way behind in others.

There certainly is something to this... We know the science required to explore the depths. It's the offshoot of a few other established pillars of the art (science). We know the basic science of orbiting our planet ( far harsher tolerances for exploration). We go into space, we don't go into the depths. This makes any layman think.. Why? Can it be said, without citation needed, that humans follow their dreams? We used to tell kids, 'Reach for the Stars', not, 'Plunge to the Depths!'. We fear the depths, it's associated with deep rooted ( no puns) fears we have as a species, linked to a broader spirituality. No so with the heavens. I think, (though I can't say for sure) our drive for exploration and scientific discovery is linked to our prehistoric, or, our theologic fears. It's better to search for the kingdom of god in the heavens than it is to plumb the depths of hell. Just a thought. We are all offspring of the ideas, fears, thoughts and hopes of the peoples who came before us. We are all paying for the memes of our fathers.

Or maybe we're just not at home in the deep dark waters. Ancient aliens aside, we are extremely vulnerable to other animals in water. We cannot extract oxygen from water like in air. In space, it's only us and our faith in the life support systems and integrity of the structures we're in.

Either way, stepping outside our artificial structures in space or sea will instantly kill us. Unless you're starring in the movie Event Horizon.

The whale itself isn't scary.

But I'm not too smart when it comes to water physics. If that whale decided to plunge deep into the abyss, would the movement created in the water drag you down with it?

Like there's that gif of a man underwater getting swept up by a current. And I know when ships sink they create a sink hole and drag surrounding stuff with them.

So yeah, if a friendly whale decided suddenly to dive deeper, would it drag you down with it?

Son, they're about equal in terms of death. Yes, that one astronaut had a hole which was clogged by his own blood. What are the chances, though? They're both dark, deadly environments. The extreme crushing pressures of the depths require just as much engineering in ships to survive the extreme negative pressure of space.

>>17884950

Don't think this happened for real. It was in a movie called "The Martian" starring Matt Damon.

>>17884963

>>17884950

No, sir. I'm bringing nothing to this discussion other than my irrational fear of this or that. I will be the very first to admit I need empirical evidence before I begin to formulate my personal views on this, in a rational, logical manner. Fear is not always like that, though. Though, I do love a good, scary tale. I mean, I've tried not to lose my childhood wonder with regards to the unknown. Hey, every coin, right?

>>17885075
I dunno what "every coin" means, is that some jewish shit? But as long as you admit it's your fear and not a sweeping generalisation then cool. I find being swallowed up by a massive predator from the deep to be just as terrifying as the abject stillness, the immensity of nothingness and near absolute zero temperature, of space. They're both extremely isolating and foreign environments.

At least you could feel the rumblings of a massive marine animal before it swallows you whole :)

Deep sea divers, whether humans or robots, see new species all the time. The ocean is so incredibly diverse; literally every diver sees new species, we just don't have the time to document them all. Ask a deep diver who lives on heliox or trimix for weeks, they have to learn to ignore everything.

There's also Stranded Deep, it's a pretty comfy game, I once played it and in the game I had exhausted the ressources of my small island, so I decided to get on my inflatable boat and row to an island I could see on the horizon.

Problem was, the island seemed much closer when I was watching it from the other island, and about mid travel, while I was crossing over the deepest waters, night began to fall.
I kept rowing, but I started to hear some rumbling under the raft, so I took out my flashlight and leaned over edge to try and see what was going on.

Then some fucking thing came out of the depth and toppled my raft.

That's when I decided to exit the game, turn off my computer and go to bed, never to start up that game again.

>We don't concern ourselves about water vapor because water vapor has a residence time of about a week.

Wrong. AGW theory is entirely about H2O's response to otherwise minor CO2 induced warming. If there is no H2O feedback then the entire climate change industry can pack up and go home because a doubling of preindustrial CO2, absent any feedbacks, would result in a maximum forcing of +1.2C. That is less than natural variation and therefore insignificant.

>There is no argument anymore.

Hilarious that you would end on this when you don't even understand the theory you are defending.

For 17 years every single Global Circulation Model based on AGW theory has failed to predict our climate. All of them are trending too high. The GCMs which assume a moderate to strong H2O feedback are now well outside of any margin of error (i.e. they are falsified). The GCMs which assume a weak H2O feedback are close to exceeding their margins of error.

It's looking more and more like there is either no H2O feedback, or a very weak positive one.

And if that's the case, anthropogenic CO2 and any related warming wouldn't even rank in the top 50 environmental problems we face.

>>17884918
let's put it this way...

if you have a ship that is sinking in water at a rapid rate, then yes... a "water sinkhole" is created, which can drag you down to a certain depth.

but no... no aquatic animal that we know of (especially blue whales), have the ability of descending at the same rate as a ship with a huge hole in it.

In this case, if the whale suddenly decides to point it's nose down and dive deeper into the abyss next to you, a drag is created no matter what , but not powerful enough to bring you down by 5 ft or so

Bump

Read about the Byford Dolphin accident. Divers coming up in a diving bell to an oil rig experienced an instantaneous drop in pressure from 9 to 1 atmospheres when the hatch accidentally opened. One of the divers was shot through a narrow space and mutilated like meat put through a grinder. The others died with their blood literally boiling inside their bodies.

Physics does weird shit.

You can actually survive being exposed to the vacuum of space for a little bit.

You sure as fuck CAN'T survive being exposed to the ocean floor though, not even for a little bit. Pressure is too high and would pop you like a zit.

I'm sure it's a part of the explanation, nice pondering anon. Imo the ocean is fucking cool and interesting as fuck, the stuff you find down there is so alien to us. It might be that there's not a lot of interesting stuff down there because the pressure is too high, but who knows.

Don't forget that in today's world, POLITICS controls what you learn in school, whether or not it's actually true.

>>17884918
>So yeah, if a friendly whale decided suddenly to dive deeper, would it drag you down with it?

Not likely.

It's all about aerodynamics and the shape of the moving object.

Whales are very streamlined, so if they were to suddenly dive deep right next to you, very little "suction" would be created.

There's no doubt that CO2 comes from fossil fuels, but you saying that it's a bad thing doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad thing. It'd be better to spend time seeing where the planet will go if it gets a bit hotter as opposed to trying to stop all change at all. Even if you controlled for every single man-made climate change event there would still be natural climate change. The earth has been much hotter at different periods, we are relatively cool now.

Scuba diver here. He gave himself nitrogen narcosis by descending too quickly. It's like getting high on air duster. Nitrogen builds up too quickly in the blood, and you're regs fall out of your mouth, sometime you even pull them out of you own mouth because your brain has so little oxygen you can not comprehend that you are underwater and you basically freak the fuck out. Happened to my father and his buddy had to wrestle him to the surface.

But we have totally explored this places. The Challenger deep was reached like four times, and there are many other projects in the works.

Exploration of space started way before space travel. To explore space, you need just to look at the stars, then you build telescopes to get a better look and classify them, then you understand the celestial bodies, and you find the immensity of the universe all for your exploration.

To explore the ocean, you need to actually dive into it, you need very high technology and planning just for a few hours of diving and for what purpose? to create settlements on a hostile and unrewarding environment? you can classify the life living in there, which I think is important, but comparing the exploration of space with the exploration of the oceans is ludicrous.

>>17910411
who was comparing?

>>17910421

>>17884575 acted like exploring the ocean was just like exploring space, if it wasn't for some "property of the human psyche"- It's not, the risk and rewards for both endeavours are very different. If we could explore/map the ocean, and there was a point to it like there is to settling on other planets, we definitely would, but the effort to do so outweighs the benefits for humanity.
