ALERT: North Pole Experiencing a Quake Storm?
The North Pole just got to large earthquakes
As you can tell by the list above, earthquakes at the North Pole do not happen on a yearly basis and multiple quakes of this size do not happen on a regular basis at all. The 3 listed for 3 years ago happened in different months.
I have now idea what this means or how concerned we should be, but it is something to keep an eye on.
The Gakkel ridge is a gigantic chain of underwater volcanoes snaking 1,800 kilometers (1,100 miles) beneath the Arctic Ocean from the northern tip of Greenland to Siberia
So, more global warming to blame on things.
What do you mean?
The volcanoes under Antarctica probably caused the hole in the ice, that also appeared 40 years ago, but they blamed in on global warming. I'm guessing if a volcano goes off in the Arctic and melts a bunch of ice, they will also blame global warming.
not IF...the volcanoes HAVE been erupting constantly, for a long time...It HAS been melting the ice...the Arctic is a basin..the ice floats in it...kinda like ice cubes in a pan...the volcanoes are the 'burner under the pan' equivalent ...
If it weren't for the volcanoes under the ice, both north and south, there would be a LOT MORE ice.
Even so the amount of ice at both poles is growing...a LOT.
