A new book by Climate Change Dispatch writer and contributor James Kamis is now available!
Kamis has been a leading proponent of the theory that geological events heavily influence the planet’s climate, something only now being recognized by the so-called science ‘gatekeepers.’
The book, “Geological Impacts on Climate,” provides evidence that increased tectonic activity, whether locally or globally, equates to more heat and chemically charged, heated fluid release from active geological features into our oceans, sub-glacial polar areas, and atmosphere.
This altered heat and fluid have acted to significantly influence, and in some cases, completely control climate and climate-related events.
To describe this new theory, the term “Plate Climatology” was coined in 2014 and published on Climate Change Dispatch.
Sections of the book that substantiate this theory include:
- Why the climate influence of geological forces has remained hidden, underestimated, and underappreciated.
- How subglacial elevated heat flux acts to melt West Antarctic, Arctic, and Greenland’s glaciers.
- Proof that the West Antarctica Rift is part of the Pacific Ring of Fire.
- Emissions from Ocean floor geological features located in the western part of the Pacific Ocean generate and maintain El Ninos and La Ninas.
- Major ice “cycles” are generated by significant changes in gravitation stress caused by Milankovitch Cycles. This increase of gravitational stress elevates tectonic activity, most importantly volcanism, thereby initiating the glacial ice melting Phase 1.
- “Slowdown” of the Gulf Stream ocean current is the result of a geologically generated ocean warm cell.
- Most of Earth’s bedrock crater features are caused by volcanism, not astronomical phenomena.
The building block principles of the theory were conceived by integrating Kamis’ observations and ideas with information from various scientific disciplines.
That includes hundreds of research studies published by noted organizations and universities such as NASA, NOAA, USGS, etc.
Reading Geological Impacts on Climate will increase your understanding of how geological forces affect our climate and climate-related events.
About the author: James Kamis is a retired Geologist with a B.S. in geology from Northern Illinois University and an M.S. in geology from Idaho State University who has always been fascinated by the connection between Geology and Climate.
More than forty-four years of research have convinced him that geological forces significantly influence the Earth’s biological environments, physical environments, climate, and climate-related events.
In some cases, geological forces completely control climate and climate-related events. You can learn more about Kamis and see a list of his articles at PCT.
I have a downloaded copy of a publication by Paul E. Kamis, James Ligon ,Steven Parks and Daid Entzminger and it is very interesting.
There is good reason to believe that changes in Earth’s geology, combined with external forces from outer space all influence the climate here on Earth.
One thing we cannot every avoid is the cycles of warm and cold periods that affects our planet. All we can do is adapt, just as we have in the past.
