Glaciology is a slippery science. Glaciology is the study of glaciers, or more generally ice and natural phenomena that involve ice. Glaciology is an interdisciplinary earth science that integrates geophysics, geology, physical geography, geomorphology, climatology, meteorology, hydrology, biology, and ecology. … Continue reading

The science of methane is very political because there are large reserves of natural gas [which are being actively harvested] and massive reserves of gas hydrates [which are not being harvested] which could transform the world economy. Natural gas is … Continue reading

Radiocarbon dating usually provides Settled Science with reassuringly robust results. However, there are exceptions to every rule and Settled Science finds the deep waters of Lake Baikal [in southern Siberia] particularly unsettling. At 636 km (395 mi) long and 79 … Continue reading

Although Earth Scientists aren’t renowned for their mathematical skills these awfully clever Earth Scientists are very proud of their accounting skills when it comes to sea level. This is a remarkable achievement considering they haven’t yet decided whether water is … Continue reading

Settled Science has a perverse preference to demonise cattle whenever possible. This preference probably originates from a Western quasi-religious phobia of horned animals. Horns of a goat and a ram, goat’s fur and ears, nose and canines of a pig, … Continue reading

The Settled Science of geology incorporates the quaint notion that the Earth’s petroleum deposits were formed via the “anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms”. Western mainstream petroleum geologists accordingly classify petroleum as a “fossil fuel” [aka decomposed dinosaur detritus] because … Continue reading
