The caterpillar theory of plate tectonic movement predicts that just as we see cracks developing in soil that has dried up, so we expect to see much larger, deeper & repeated cracks developing from the surface downward, one new set … Continue reading →

After the boxing day & Japanese earthquake and Tsunamis are geologists ignoring a vital tool that could be used to help predict earthquakes? In the last article I provided a quick summary of the Caterpillar theory of plate tectonic movement. … Continue reading →

In this article I want to explore what this new theory implies about the present political debate called “global warming”.

Following some very helpful comments to previous articles I am outlining the trigger mechanism in more detail and I want to go back to look at the reasons why we might have a relatively stable inter-glacial temperature. See also: Introduction … Continue reading →

This is a repeat of the article in which I describe how temperature and CO2 are not correlated around 16,000 years after the inter-glacial peak. For those not familiar with my sense of humour the “Haseler Gap” also refers to … Continue reading →

In the previous introduction and article on cycles I covered ground that will be familiar to many. In this article I want to look at Hadley cells and start to consider other ways the planet might operate. See also: Introduction … Continue reading →

So far we have discussed ice-age cycles as if there is one and only one type of cycle of around 100k years. In this article I want to put flesh onto that skeleton and look at the variety of cycles … Continue reading →

After discussing how reducing CO2 could modulate H2O to produce a drier and therefore colder climate I want to review the evidence for that colder climate in the ice-age. To recap In the last article (How CO2 could control climate) … Continue reading →
