let's explain how climate change works

[basquebromance]

Every time you have that soil or rock or whatever it is that is deposited into the seas, that forces the sea levels to rise, because now you've got less space in those oceans, because the bottom is moving up.

 

[Billy_Bob]

That is not climate change.... That is simple physical displacement..

freaking moron...

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

All that extra water from melting glaciers has caused the ocean to sink

 

[Tax Man]

Sometimes I wonder how people got to live so long. I mean how dense is the first post? Depleted uranium dense or worse?

Hmmm yeah but, if the soil and rocks are being washed off the land into the sea causing it to rise, wouldn't the less weight on the dry land cause it to rise that much as well?

One of the best scenes ever!

Actually, Mr Freaking Pedantic, "physical" adds nothing to "displacement" and "simple" implies only a "change in position" occurred, whereas fluid was clearly involved in this case.

What part of 'fluid displacement' are you incapable of grasping?

Rock taken from dry land, thrown into ocean, displaces its mass in water...

You're going to tell me if you drop a rock in a glass of water that the dimensions of the rock will not displace water in the glass and make the water rise in equal value? Seriously?

Dimensions? You didn't say dimensions, you said mass.

"physical displacement" What the hell did you think it meant?

The part where you misquote yourself, adding "fluid" in retrospect.

Rock taken from dry land, thrown into ocean, displaces its mass in water...

No silly, given said "rock" is not a pumice stone, it displaces its volume equivalent of ocean water.

 

[Grumblenuts]

Its weight, in other words. Not its "mass"! For that is the nature of buoyancy.

 

[Old Rocks]

LOL When you address Silly Billy, you are addressing a atmospheric physicist that has never had a class in physics or statistics. LOL And then there is the little matter of isostasy. Look it up, Billy, look it up. LOL

 

[Grumblenuts]

isostasy

Good point!

Seems more like what the OP was getting at, only he got it backwards, lol!
