Cosmography101 Class 34 part 2 with Randall Carlson, from January 7, 2009. Find ALL the Cosmography101 classes listed in sequence on the playlist. Much more on the Younger-Dryas Boundary (YDB) and YD Impact Hypothesis on Randall's new podcast: /
@Antonio Zamora @Dabbler's Den / Apologies for the sound being all over the place! The mic got laid out to the side, so when RC turned his head and talked in the other direction, the level really dropped... It's knowledge quantity over production quality at this channel!
Summary notes/topics:
Why are bays not other places toward Great Lakes? Air blast different into stone or clay than sand
Exclusive to a particular type of landscape – the sandy unconsolidated sediments of the coastal plain
Moon craters [grail] Messiers Twins elliptical/oblong by oblique impact
Overlapping rims, Theophilus Cyrillus, Catharina – indicates relative ages
Configuration of Great Lakes – formed by a great catastrophe? Radial out from east Lake Superior?
Southeast coastal plain map; Carolina Bays’ original aerial photos organized into mosaic of cluster
Henry Savage (1982) “Mysterious Carolina Bays” story of discovery near Myrtle Beach
Not found in Louisiana (most of it a delta from floods down Mississippi River basin; Few in Texas?
Peat bog formation and dating at 8-14kya; if from catastrophe, you have redistribution of materials
Bottom layer is baked sand called humate; could date organics as it started to refill after formation
Ocean depth hundreds of feet lower during formation, could have been thousands now underwater
Southeastern rim of Bays enhanced and Terrestrial camp didn’t have an explanation for that
“Ghost” bays, as they are reclaimed, but still show shadowy shape
Distribution of Bays map throughout Carolinas and Georgia; most northern in New Jersey
None above/north of “fall line” that crosses near Macon, GA
Bays’ orientation/alignment paths toward Great Lakes; ellipticity and eccentricity changes
BREAK
Result of multiple fragmentation event? Flight path up across the Canadian ice sheets?
Linked research to Missoula flood by questioning sudden flooding from the ice
Cedric Leonard: Quest for Atlantis from mid ‘70s with chapter “The Catastrophe of 10,000 B.C.”
Bretz proposed floods as result of large scale melting in the 1920’s! No source – NO FLOODS!
REXpeditions of ’98 to Scablands and ’99 to valleys/trenches of British Columbia
Canadian geologist paper, by John Shaw in obscure petroleum journal
Fall back breccias in the form of large chunks of ice to create the Bays?
Still leaning toward them being deflation hollows from aerial burst
Insert LiDAR images from Davias/Cintos (End cut segment at 25:32)
Lake Waccamaw info, then maps and RC flyover pics of Georgia’s Bays
BREAK
Nobody had gone in to investigate the bottoms; Review Douglas Johnson’s complex theory
“Artesian Solution Lacustrine Aeolian” must be right, because he’s an expert…
But when they studied the bottoms for the migrating inverted wells – no such evidence was found
Raymond Kaczorowski in USC technical report (1977) “The Carolina Bays: A Comparison with Modern Oriented Lakes” workers have neglected modern analogs in Alaska, Chile, and Texas
Alaska’s North Shore has similar, more elongated lakes – that are 13,000 years old!
Critiquing his repeat of a complex theory and replication model – still requires topographic hollow
Assumes that all craters must be round and concludes that some meteorite material should remain
Experiment creates a football shape with a high-speed fan – after he scoops a hollow out manually
Henry Savage (1982) “Mysterious Carolina Bays” – prostrate timbers from massive blow-down
Waccamaw Indians’ logo “People of the Falling Star”
Music by David Walen Jr. Soundcloud "Shadoan" Track Glacial Winds
