SOLUTION TO THE VANCOUVER “TERRANES” AND SE ALASKA BREAKUP PUZZLE

Vancouver Island, oriented NW-SE, is a land of Terranes. It has been slammed from the SW several times, and these exotic portions of the island are called terranes- sequences of rocks which are not similar to anything found on the island further to the east. The sequences are roughly parallel to each other, indicating that they came from the same direction. Let’s analyze them from the standpoint of Coriolis rotation, using the rule that there is no influence of the Equatorial Bulge in these latitudes north of 40N. There are high mountains, however, so that the westward TIDAL SHOVE, CAUSED BY INCREASED INFLUENCE OF SLOWING OF THE CRUST FOR REGIONS WITH EXCESS BULGE OF PROTRUDING MOUNTAINS, creates westward movement of the part of the island west of the mountains. In addition, there are high mountains on the mainland, so that a basin is created by the differential westward shove between both sets of protrusions. This is shown for the states of Oregon and Washington, where a DIAGRAM, FOR A VERTICAL ROTATION, WITH THE SUBDUCTION (A CYLINDRICAL CELL DIVING UNDER AND DEEPER TO THE NORTH) MOVING THE CRUST UNDER OR AND WA:

I have found that movements of two or more greater entities (such as the Sierras-Central Valley cell in CA, and the Basin and Range, B&R, cell for Nevada) create a diagonal portrait between them- as in Death Valley. In this case, I will compare the Vancouver Island and Mountains to the east- British Columbia- to determine whether a similar portrait results. This will include SE Alaska later, after the initial result is found to be positive. The coastline for both SE Alaska and Vancouver is similar- trending NW-ward. Tentatively, it appears that Coriolis Forces move mass further from the Equator faster than mass to the south. In other words, the island moved further to the west the further it occurs from the Equator. This would cause the coast to trend NW-ward in the northern hemisphere. Conversely, the coastline would trend SE-ward in the southern hemisphere (considering only Coriolis rotation)
NOTICE THAT THE COASTLINE OF CANADA AND ALASKA IS BREAKING UP INTO ISLANDS, DUE TO THE WESTWARD DRAG OF TIDAL INFLUENCE ON THE VANCOUVER MOUNTAINS (MOVING RELATIVELY WESTWARD COMPARED TO NON-MOUNTAINOUS REGIONS).
TESTING THE RELATION OF MOUNTAIN CHAINS AND THEIR CREATION OF TRANSFORMS AND WESTWARD-MOVEMENT OF THE CRUST, THIS IS PORTRAYED IN THE FOLLOWING GOOGLE EARTH PHOTO:
FROM WHENCE COMES THE TERTIARY MOUNTAIN RANGES?
The principal result of all of my analysis of EQUATORIAL BULGE (EB)TERMINATION (40N AND 40S LATITUDES) AND MOUNTAIN RANGE MOVEMENT TO THE WEST DUE TO INCREASED TIDAL ACTION is that a significant range of mountains augments the normal slowing of the earth with time. Mountains within the spread of roughly 70n to 70S latitudes offset the normal drag of the CRUST TO THE EAST (DUE TO THE MANTLE MOVING SLIGHTLY FASTER THAN THE CRUST).
There is an interplay displayed in structural geology on GOOGLE EARTH: FOR THE NORMAL CASE, SUBDUCTION OCCURS UNDER OR OVER PACIFIC COASTLINES, WHENEVER MANTLE DRAG IS DOMINANT (N-S LONGITUDINAL CELLS ROTATE UNDER THE CONTINENTS); WHEREAS, WHERE THERE IS AUGMENTED TIDAL SHOVE TO THE WEST, MOUNTAINS ARE PRESENT WHICH EFFECTUATE AND DOMINATE THE ACTION. FOR EXAMPLE, AT THE MENDOCINO 40N LOCATION, THERE IS CONFLICT BETWEEN WESTWARD SHOVE BY TIDAL INFLUENCE AND EASTWARD DRAG BY MANTLE MOVEMENTS. THE MANTLE WINS ON THE NORTH SIDE, WHILE TIDAL SHEAR IS DOMINANT TO THE WEST (from combination of EB plus Range protrusion)WINS ON THE SOUTH SIDE.
The question arises: What brought the Tertiary Mountain Ranges to the surface in the first place?
I have previously assumed that there was a POLAR AXIS RE-SET, AFTER A SIGNIFICANT EARTH SHOCK (KT IMPACT). Then, the earth attempted to reach a new mechanical equilibrium, and both pole and equator exhibited wobbles, with a re-distribution of mass (such as Australia and India moving north). After Cretaceous time, previous inland seas and distribution of earth stresses were replaced with uplift of continents and emplacement of basins under the influence of Coriolis rotation and EB shear. But what causes the mountains to rise in Tertiary Time? We won’t use the old “bugaboo” of Mantle Plumes and Hotspots, since this is a cop-out. Furthermore, it is not simple radioactive HEAT, since the linear nature hints otherwise. IT APPEARS THAT THERE IS A NEW SHRINKAGE OF THE CRUST WHICH HAS NOT BEEN INCORPORATED! We have put LOD increase (Length of Day) and TIDAL INFLENCE AND DRAG into the mix; how about simple contraction of the Earth, creating compression-driven mountain chain rise?
SLOWING EARTH AND INCREASING LENGTH OF DAY (LOD) SCENARIO
The long term slowing of the earth’s spin rate results in several anticipated phenomena:
1. The LOD increases, which reduces the spatial velocity along all latitude lines;
2. Reduction of centrifugal force causes the EQUATORIAL BULGE, EB, to shrink;
3. The EARTH trends toward a more spherical configuration (less elliptical, and more rounded)- shrinking at the equator and expanding at the poles;
4. The bulge mass is transferred to regions outside of the EB zone; and,
5. The central portion is squeezed LATERALLY, creating zones where crust is re-distributed near ocean basins.
Let’s examine the location of mountain ranges, to see how this fits with the PHENOMENON OF A SLOWING EARTH.
There seem to be three general categories where mountain ranges occur:
A. Those rising today (indicated by GPS ELEVATIOIN CHANGES, such as the Sierras);
B. Those eroding more rapidly than they are rising (the Appalachians); and,
C. Those being peneplained or leveled (ARBUCKLES AND Ouachitas).
The ones of interest to today’s dynamics are in category A, where the age is less than that occurring in the Mesozoic. The west coast of the Americas exhibit the dominant type, where the Rocky to the Andes Ranges stretch along the entire coast with few exceptions. The exceptions should give clues, to whether this scenario of creation of chains next to oceans is the proper choice.
A DIAGRAM MAY HELP TO YIELD HINTS AS TO THE INCIPIENCE OF THE SIERRAS:
CLUES TO THE FORMATION OF MOUNTAIN RANGES IN THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE MAY BE FOUND BY COMPARING THE COASTAL ZONES WHICH HAVE NO MANTLE DRAG, BUT WHICH HAVE TIDAL PUSH (MAD-MACS): ALASKAN PANHANDLE, SIERRAS-CENTRAL VALLEY, AND BAJA PENINSULA SOUTH, MEXICO:
COMPARE NW AMERICA WITH THE COASTLINE OF CHILE, WHERE THE LATITUDE IS SOUTH OF 40S ( NO EB AND BOTH VERTICAL ROTATION AND RIFTING ARE PRESENT:
OBSERVATIONS: 1. HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL ROTATION (RIFTS AND CIRCULAR COASTLINE), AS WELL AS WEST TIDAL SHOVE (MTNS. WITH NO TRANSFORMS) ARE NOTICEABLE;
2. DIAMETER OF THE VERTICAL ROTATING CELL INCREASES TO THE NORTH, SIMILAR TO THAT OFFSHORE OREGON;
3. THERE IS CCW ROTATION ON THE EXTREME SOUTH COAST (TERRA DEL FUEGO); AND,
4. THE FIRSTS SIGNIFICANT TRANSFORM EXISTS AT 40S, THE SOUTHERN BOUNDARY OF EB.
NOTICE BELOW, THAT THE 40S TRANSFORM (TERMINATION OF EQUATORIAL BULGE) DIVIDES THE COAST AND PORTRAYS INCREASING ELEVATION TO THE NORTH. FURTHER, THERE IS NO SUBDUCTION TO THE SOUTH, WHILE IT IS ABUNDANTLY NOTICEABLE TO THE NORTH:
NOW COMPARE CHILE COAST LINE WITH THE ANALYSIS OF THE ALASKAN PANHANDLE, SHOWING A ZONE OF TIDAL SHOVE TO THE WEST (WITH NO SUBDUCTION, UNTIL REACHING THE LYNN CANAL:
TENTATIVE CONCLUSIONS:
1. SUBDUCTION IS MORE CORRECTLY VERTICAL ROTATION OF THE COASTLINE, WITH THE DIAMETER OF THE VERTICAL CELL INCREASING GENERALLY TO THE NORTH (DIVING);
2. MOUNTAIN RANGES FORM PARALLEL TO COASTLINES, AS CRUST IS SQUEEZED UPWARDLY FOR A CONTRACTING EARTH;
3. CORIOLIS FORCES AUGMENT UPLIFT IN THE NORTHERN HEMISHERE AND DETER IT IN THE SOUTH (THIS IS A BIT OF A PROJECTIOIN, AND WE WILL LOOK AT NEW GUINEA, WHERE THE OWEN STANLEY RANGE RUNS ALONG THE EQUATOR); AND,
4. MOUNTAIN RANGES TREND PERPENDICULARLY TO THE DIRECTION TO THE OCEAN, AND THIS IS A PUZZLE TO BE SOLVED.

THE OWEN STANLEY MOUNTAINS LIE SOUTH OF THE EQUATOR, IN NEW GUINEA, AND ARE RELATED TO TWO SPIRALING CELLS SOUTH OF THAT DIVIDER. REMIND ME TO TELL YOU SOMETIME, ABOUT MY EXPERIENCES ON MANUS ISLAND, WHERE I WAS ACCOSTED BY A BLACK-AS-NIGHT SECURITY GUARD FOR MY B-29 AIRCRAFT. FORTUNATELY, I LIVED TO TELL THE STORY, AND SURVIVED EVEN THE "AUSSIES"- WHO MANNED THE BASE- WHO WERE DETERMINED TO SHOW THAT THEY WERE SUPERIOR TO ANYTHING WE COULD "DRAG UP".
I THINK THAT WITH THIS PORTRAIT, WE CAN SOLVE THE MARIANAS TRENCH PUZZLE, BUT THAT WILL BE POSTED ON ANOTHER BLOG. NOTICE NOW THAT THE SPIRALS ARE IN THE MIDST OF THE SOUTH PACIFIC AND INDIAN OCEAN VOLCANIC ZONES, AND THAT GUAM IS DISTANTLY-RELATED (BUT WE STILL HAVE TO CONTEND WITH THE PRESENCE OF THE EQUATOR).
FINDING THE ANOMALOUS LINEAR MOUNTAIN CHAIN
The Pacific Ocean surroundings have most of the major mountain chains for the whole world. Exceptions include the Alps, the Taurus of Turkey, the Himalayas, and the Atlas mountains of Africa. For the others, here are generalizations:
A. The Pacific Rim has chains parallel to coastlines; of course you will say, when a mountain linear appears, it makes a border. The case of the Sierras shows that the chain is parallel to the ocean even when it is far inland;
B. The most dramatic ranges are inside the Equatorial bulge, EB. An example is for the Andes, where the range diminishes with approach to the 40S latitude. An exception is Denali or Mt. McKinley, which is the highest in North America, and this is with arcuate presentation (not linear). The highest of all is Everest, which is far inland and still rising;
C. Mountain ranges are mainly uplifted sedimentary rocks. The ones I have studied have Mesozoic or younger columns elevated- sometimes at drastic angles (such as in the Rockies and the Sierras), so that they indicate that the stress which has shoved them is nearby. Paleozoic uplifts are mostly eroded or peneplained, and yield few clues as to what elevated them;
D. Mountain ranges terminate at interferences- such as EB, major transforms in the oceans, or at initiation of vulcanism or geothermal anomalies; and,
E. Inflections in the linear presentation correlate with major stress changes in the Crust, such as near super volcanoes and large Coriolis cell changes in elevation.
THE SIERRAS SEEM TO BE THE STERLING EXAMPLE OF ALL OF THE ABOVE CHARACTERISTICS, EXCEPT THAT IT HAS A METAMORPHIC AND IGNEOUS ROCK CORE, IT HAS SHARP BOUNDARIES ON BOTH ENDS, AND IT OCCURS ABOUT 250 KM FROM THE PACIFIC OCEAN (COMPARED TO ZERO FOR THE ALASKAN PANHANDLE).
QUESTIONS:
1. WHY WOULD MOUNTAIN RANGES PROTRUDE SO CLOSELY TO THE OCEAN, WHICH HAS A THIN CRUST AND WOULD MORE EASILY ABSORB COMPRESSIONAL SQUEEZING, WITH EARTH CONTRACTION (DUE TO SLOWING AND REDUCED CENTRIFUGAL FORCE?
POSSIBLE ANSWER:
The deep ocean has a bulge, but it is immediately rectified for any mechanical rearrangement by shifting of the water column. The continents, with their 100 million times greater viscosity, rearrange their height much more slowly, and possess anomalous bulges more so than the liquid oceans (BLOOD IS THICKER THAN WATER!).
2. WHY ARE THE NORTH AMERICAN RANGES IN LINEAR PATTERNS, WHEREAS THE HIMALAYAS AND THE ALEUTIANS OCCUR IN CIRCULAR PATTERNS?
POSSIBLE ANSWER:
Crushing tests reveal failure in planes or linear patterns; if the earth is shrinking, it will fail along N-S lines or their orthogonals.
With this explanation, the Himalayas and the Alaskan mountain ranges are not due to shrinkage, but to other interferences (such as Coriolis forces or mass transfer because of wobbling of the earth).
3. Why are the Alaskan panhandle ranges so close to the ocean, compared to the rest of the trans-continental Andes, Sierras, and Sierra Madre?
POSSIBLE ANSWER:
The ranges near Juneau and Skagway are metamorphic and crystalline rock, due evidently to greater shove with TIDAL FORCES at these high latitudes. We will have to compare these to others at similar parallels.
THE GOOGLE PHOTO OF THE EAST INDIES, NEAR THE EQUATOR, YIELDS CLUES AS TO FORMATION OF A LINEAR MOUNTAIN CHAIN (OWEN STANLEY RANGE) WHEN THERE IS NO CORIOLIS ROTATION AND THE MOVEMENT IS SPIRALING TO PRODUCE NEW GUINEA AS A MASS BETWEEN TWO MAJOR ENTITIES:
A FEATURE IN THE PHOTO ABOVE IS THE MOVEMENT OF NEW GUINEA AWAY TO THE NORTH FROM AUSTRALIA (FASTER THAN THE CONTINENT IS MOVING- LEAVING A SHELF OF LARGE EXTENT BETWEEN THEM). THIS IS HAPPENING, LEAVING CLUES AS TO THE MECHANICS INVOLVED:
1. THE ISLAND IS DIAGONAL BETWEEN THE TWO SPIRALING ARRAYS, INDICATING THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION (CW);
2. FEATURES ALONG THE EQUATOR INDICATE THAT IT IS A BARRIER TO FURTHER MOVEMENT TO THE NORTH, EVEN THOUGH INDIA OBVIOUSLY OVERCAME THIS RESISTANCE;
3. SULAWESI (CELEBES FORMERLY) IS ORIENTED E-W, INDICATING THAT THE EQUATOR IS IMPORTANT TO WHATEVER CREATES THIS ARRANGEMENT;
4. KALIMANTAN (BORNEO FORMERLY) AND SUMATRA STRADDLE THE EQUATOR, AND INDICATE THAT VULCANISM TERMINATES THERE, ALTHOUGH LAKE TOBA IS A COLLAPSED VOLCANIC CALDERA (NORTH OF THE EQUATOR); AND,
5. THERE ARE DISCONTINUITIES AT THE EQUATOR, INDICATING THAT THERE IS SHEAR TRANSPIRING.

SCENARIO FOR THE NEW GUINEA MOUNTAIN CHAIN
For a feature at the equator, there is no significant Coriolis rotation, no Mantle shove for a mass oriented E-W, no shear for the Equatorial Bulge; so where does that leave us?
Notice that there is considerable separation between Australia and the island of New Guinea. This implies significant TIME, WHERE THE ISLAND HAS MOVED FROM ITS MORE SOUTHERLY POSITION. I propose the following solution to this set of circumstances below the equator:
1. The Australian continent has moved northward, under the impetus of a mass imbalance since the last re-orientation of the POLAR AXIS;
2. Australia developed an E-W Leading edge, as it moved northward. Why? Shrinkage of the earth created an orthogonal compressional feature (an uplift, in response to the contraction of the earth). This E-W feature developed at a time when Australia was south of the 10S marginal Coriolis zone, and it subsequently separated and rotated CW (UPLIFT, IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE), since sufficient time has transpired, as indicated by the large separation of the two landmasses;
3. The separated landmass (island of New Guinea) rotated CW, as it rose by squeezing. This all must transpire before entering the present 10S to Equator zone, in order to significantly rotate between the two spirals of Indonesia and islands surrounding the Bismarck Sea;
4. As the island rotated, it developed a profile which was somewhat more of a N-S presentation to the tidal friction of the moon. Hence it began to slow compared to islands to the east and west. New Guinea jammed against Indonesia and pulled away from the Bismarck islands. This created an exaggerated spiral for the East Indies, compared to the islands of the Bismarck Sea;
5. As a consequence, Indonesia rotated CCW in response the westward shove of New Guinea. This caused Indonesia to sink, while New Guinea rose. Most of Indonesia is now sub sea, while most of New Guinea is highlands; and,
6. The vulcanism of Indonesia is exterior to the spiral, and the treatment of this conflict is another analysis. STAY TUNED!

What have we learned, which will augment understanding the formation of linear mountain ranges? First, that the ranges may orient E-W., as an orthogonal to earth stresses. Secondly, an important Pacific Boundary island has a linearly-arranged Mountain Range, which originates according to EARTH CONTRACTION PRINCIPLES; and, Thirdly, that MECHANICS can explain GEOLOGICAL ANOMALIES,

This is all very TENUOUS, AND I REJECT IT. It shows some possibilities, and parts of it are acceptable, but THERE IS NO MECHANICS REASON FOR THE CONTNUOUS SEPARATION TO THE NORTH OF NEW GUINEA FROM AUSTRALIA (there is separation of New Guinea westward, by tidal friction, but not northward). The E-W alignment, before rotation, of the island may be used as an example of orthogonal compression with shrinking of the earth, and we will leave this in the inbox.
CONTINUATION OF THE NEW GUINEA TECTONICS ANAYSIS
More likely, the island is moving to the east as was concluded for the crust COLLIDING westward at the TONGA TRENCH. The encroachment of New Guinea toward the Bismarck Sea, and the shove of Indonesia towards the island indicates the reverse of the TIDAL DRAG TO THE WEST.
Further, the separation of the island appears to have moved to the east, relative to Australia, by the shape of the bays and protrusions fitting with the north Australia coastline. The key to further understanding is to find a mechanism for the island to separate from Australia, northward, and to account for the eastward deviation without tidal drag. This infers rotation by Mantle movements eastward faster than the Crust, and this will require another DIAGRAM AND MODEL FOR A LARGE SEGMENT OF CRUST.
STARTING WITH THE BLOCK OF CRUST OCCUPIED WITH AUSTRALIA AND SURROUNDINGS:
ABOVE MAP SHOWS THAT SEVERAL FEATURES FROM THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE STILL APPLY TO THE SOUTH:
1. THE EQUATORIAL BULGE, EB, TERMINATES AT 40S, AS EVIDENCED BY SHEARING OF TASMANIA AND NEW ZEALAND SOUTH ISLAND FROM THE NORTH ISLAND;
2. CORIOLIS CELLS APPEAR, BUT THE RULES ARE REVERSED (CW INDICATES UPLIFT);
3. SHEARING LEAVES A TRAIL OF SILTATION ON THE OCEAN FLOOR; AND,
4. THE TONGA TRENCH OPPOSES THE NORMAL WESTWARD DRAG FOR ALL OF THE EARTH (DRAG IS STILL LESS ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF 40S).

A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE REACTION TO THE KT STRIKE, RE-ORIENTING THE EQUATOR AND POLAR AXIS IS SHOWN BELOW, FOR THE ANTI-PODAL POSITION TO THE CHICXULUB STRIKE:
THIS IS SHOWN AS A SIMPLIFIED DIAGRAM, INCLUDING THE NORTHWARD (now NE-ward) AUSTRALIA MOVEMENTS: THIS IS ALL HIGHLY SPECULATIVE, BUT SEEMS TO SATISFY THE FOLLOWING PRESENTATIONS:
1. PART OF THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE IS MOVING "AGAINST THE GRAIN" OF ALL THE RULES FOR OTHER MECHANICAL ADJUSTMENTS, AND THIS ALLOWS THE NORTHWARD MOVEMENT TO OFFSET A BULGE WHICH REACTED ANTIPODAL-LY TO THE KT STRIKE;
2. THE INFLECTION AT THE INDIA TRACE IS AT ABOUT THE RIGHT LOCATION TO ACCOMMODATE A SUDDEN CHANGE;
3. AUSTRALIA, BEING IN THE "NEIGHBORHOOD" HAS ADJUSTED ITS ORIGINAL NORTHWARD (NOW NE-WARD) ALSO; AND,
4. ITS NORTHERN EDGE (NOW NEW GUINEA) HAS HAD TIME TO DEVELOP A MOUNTAIN RANGE AND PULL AWAY FROM THE CONTINENT (but we still have to find a mechanism for separation and elevation of the NEW GUINEA MOUNTAINS).
THE NEXT STEP IS TO FIND HOW AUSTRALIA REACTED TO THE KT STRIKE:

THE START OF THE SEPARATION (1ST STAGE) OF NEW GUINEA FROM AUSTRALIA, CAN BE SEEN AS A SERIES OF PARALLEL ARCS ON THE WEST SIDE OF AUSTRALIA. THIS IS ANOTHER "SURGE" PHENOMENON, WHICH WE WILL SOLVE LATER. BUT NOW IT CAN BE SEEN THAT THE SEPARATION HAS BEGUN, AND I ASSUME THAT THE FORWARD FRONT OF THE ISLAND CREATES THE HORIZONTAL VERTICALLY-ROTATING CELL (WHICH IS THE ISLAND OF NEW GUINEA AND ITS COUPLET OF RISING MOUNTAINS AND SINKING AREA BETWEEN AUSTRALIA AND THE ISLAND).
THE NW CORNER OF AUSTRALIA SHOWS THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION AND MOVEMENT OF THE CONTINENT, BY THE DIVERSION OF THE OFFSHORE RIFT TO A CORIOLIS CELL ROTATING ABOUT THIS CENTERLINE (SIMILAR TO THAT AT MENDOCINO): AUSTRALIA IS ROTATING IN THE LATITUDES GREATER THAN 10S, WHILE NEW GUINEA IS IN THE DOLDRUMS
The below Google photo shows that the continent “down under” is rotating CW, which is a rising entity (southern hemisphere). This is seen several ways:
1. The transform on the WEST SIDE OF AUSTRALIA is displaced to the north, referenced to the centerline of the Coriolis cell which surrounds this linear ON LAND. Offshore, this linear traces WNW-ESE, while onshore the linear is rotated to the NE;
2. Relative to the island of New Guinea, the continent is rotating to the east, taking parts of the island with it. The continent is south of 10S, while New Guinea is in the latitudes where Coriolis has minimum effect. There is still a rough fit of the two separated coastlines;
3. The west side of Australia has protruding land, while the east side has sinking lands, with shallow seas and shelves; and,
4. Although Australia was tracing NE-ward before the impact of the KT strike, it now is moving to the east, and will not cross the Equator. Evidently, the collision of India is sufficient to forego any further movement across the Equator. A caveat exists for the Shetland Islands and those south of South America, where Antarctica has “slung off” additional crust during the Pliocene- indicating some mass imbalance remaining.
SO THERE IT IS! THE OUTBACK AND ITS CONTRAVENING MOVEMENTS AND LIFE HAS CHANGED THE ORIENTATION OF THE WHOLE QUADRANSPHERE, BECAUSE OF THE KT ASTEROID STRIKE! Australia has separated from New Guinea because of the Coriolis Effect, where the island has almost no rotation.
Below diagram shows HOW THE ROTATION AT 10S, WHICH IS STILL SIGNIFICANT, SPIRALS THE ISLAND OF NEW GUINEA INTO THE CRUST- THEREBY WRENCHING THE EAST END OF THE ISLAND AND ELEVATING THE OWEN STANLEY MOUNTAINS: BELOW ARE THE SPECTACLES FOUND IN MY WATCHING GOOGLE EARTH "WATCHING ME":

But we still have to solve the puzzle of the rising New Guinea E-W horizontal cell, bringing up a linear chain of the Owen Stanley Mountains (I'M NOT QUITE SATISFIED SUFFICIENTLY, FOR A WORLD-WIDE APPLICATION). KEEP TUNED!


TO BE CONTINUED, UNTIL WE FIND THE SOLUTION TO THE MOUNTAIN RANGE CREATION PUZZLE.

Hurricane Fault at Hurricane, UT may be used as a MODEL FOR THE MENDOCINO, CA CIRCULAR FEATURE ABOUT THE 40N LATITUDE (TERMINATION: EQUATORIAL BULGE)

ALTHOUGH THE HURRICANE FAULT TRACES N-S, I HAVE ROTATED THE DIAGRAM 90 DEGREES, SO THAT IT WILL COMPARE DIRECTLY WITH THE MENDOCINO PRESENTATION. CORIOLIS FORCE WORKS OMNI-DIRECTIONALLY, SO THAT ROTATIONS OCCUR WITHOUT REGARD TO ORIENTATION- THEY OCCUR SURROUNDING AN INDEPENDENTLY-MOVING LINEAR OR OTHER PROTRUSION.


Below and above are shown the map and diagrammatical view of the 30 km arcuate presentation of shear and circumference of the local cell surrounding a part of the Hurricane fault, Hf: NOW COMPARE THIS DIAGRAM WITH THE GOOGLE EARTH PRESENTATION OF THE MENDOCINO, CA FEATURE:
The DIAGRAM FOR THE MENDOCINO ENTITY, WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT FEATURES EMPHASIZED, IS SHOWN FOR COMPARISON WITH THE Hf DIAGRAM, BELOW:
NOTICE THE FOLLOWING FEATURES:
1. AN INDEPENDENT DYNAMIC LINEAR ACTUATES THE CORIOLIS ROTATION;
2. SHEAR OCCURS AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE CIRCULAR CELL;
3. THERE ARE ARCUATE PRESENTATIONS IN THE ROCK OR ON THE OCEAN FLOOR;
4. A SINK OR DEPRESSION OCCURS OPPOSITELY FROM AN UPLIFT OR MONOCLINE;
5. THE SHEAR CREATES PERMEABLE PATHS FOR HYDROCARBONS OF OTHER FLUIDS;
6. A BRITTLE FRICTION-INDUCED GEOTHERMAL ACTIVITY OCCURS AT THE EDGE OF THE CELL NEAR THE GRABEN OR SINK LOCATION; AND,
7. THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION MAY BE FOUND BY OBSERVING DRAG ON SURROUNDINGS, BY SLICKENSIDES, OR BY THE SHOVE CREATING HILLS.
LET'S VIEW THE SMALL GRASS VALLEY CORIOLIS CELL IN THE CONTEXT OF A LARGER VIEW OF THE CELL AS A PART OF THE COLORADO PLATEAU- WHICH IS A PART OF A WESTERN USA (ALMOST-UNIQUE) PHENOMENON: THE B&R, CP, AND SIERRAS TRIPLET:
I AM DOING THIS ANALYSIS TO SOLVE A LARGER PROBLEM- WHY THE SIERRAS ARE THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE. THE SIERRAS RANGE CREATE THE B&R BY THEIR TIDAL PUSH TO THE WEST (CREATING EXTENSION FOR NV AND UTAH AS FAR AS THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS- WHERE THE ROCKIES PUSH BACK TO THE WEST ALSO).
WHY HAVE THE SIERRAS RISEN IN TERTIARY TIME? THIS IS A LATE PHENOMENON, AND I ASSUME THAT IT IS DUE TO THE INCREASE OF LENGTH OF DAY, LOD, AS TIDAL FRICTION SLOWS THE EARTH. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE CRUST NEAR OCEANS REARRANGES WITH THE RE-DISTRIBUTION OF MASS AS THE ZONE OF THE TRIPLET SUBSIDES. ELSEWHERE, THE ANDES AND MOST MOUNTAIN RANGES RISE NEAR THE WEST COAST OF THE AMERICAS. THE SIERRAS ARE UNIQUE, IN THAT THEY RISE OVER A 6 DEGREE LATITUDE BAND- INFLUENCING THE WESTERN PACIFIC ALL THE WAY TO MIDWAY ISLAND (SHEARING THE BASIN, BUT NOT CREATING LARGE-SCALE VULCANISM).

SUTTER BUTTES, CA, PART OF A NE-SW ANOMALY

SUTTER BUTTES, CA, IS PART OF A DEVIANT from THE SIERRAS-MENDOCINO SEGMENT TO THE WEST ANOMALY SUTTER BUTTES, CA, IS PART OF A DEVIANT from THE SIERRAS-MENDOCINO EB 40N TRANSFORM TO THE WEST ANOMALY
The Sierras (NW-SE ORIENTED MOUNTAIN CHAIN, BETWEEN 34 AND 40N LATITUDES) ARE MOVING WESTWARD, BECAUSE OF THE INCREASED TIDAL DRAG ON THIS LATITUDE BAND. This occurs due to their greater protrusion into the atmosphere, and the TIDAL FORCE DRAGS ALL BULGES (SLOWS, RELATIVELY, ALL PROTRUSIONS) WESTWARD. Consequently, the segment of the CRUST between these latitudes is moving oppositely than the normal continental drag at the mantle top- which is to drag the crust east (with a simultaneous relatively slower movement of the top of the crust eastward). This occurs because the mantle- being further from the MOON- moves somewhat faster than the crust (near 1 mm/year), and drags the crust at the lower boundary. As a result of all this, the segment between Los Angeles GARLOCK fault and Mendocino is moving westward- creating several anomalies along the way. One of these is the angular change to the west at Mendocino (rotational) and another is the linear shown below:


A clue to the origin of SUTTER BUTTES IS SHOWN BELOW, WHERE TWO LARGER MOVEMENTS HAVE CREATED REACTIONARY CELLS WHICH WERE ROTATING AGAINST EACH OTHER, CREATING THE HEAT BY FRICTION NECESSARY TO CAUSE THERMAL UPLIFT AND EXTRUSION:
SUTTER BUTTES IS SEEN BELOW AS A PART OF A LARGER ROTATION, WITH TWO CELLS ROTATING WITHIN THE VALLEY. THIS HAS CREATED THRUSTING ON A LARGE SCALE, AND A SINK WITHIN A CW-ROTATING CELL. This will have to be analyzed on a larger scale:
THE LARGER VERTICAL ROTATION WITHIN THE CRUST IS SEEN ON A STATE-WIDE VIEW, AND IT DIPS DOWN TO THE NORTH, WHILE BEING DRAGGED AT THE BASE BY THE MANTLE- WHICH MOVES TO THE EAST, DUE TO THE LESSER TIDAL INFLUENCE OF THE MOON:
THIS IS SHOWN DIAGRAMMATICALLY BELOW, AS A CROSS-SECTION OF VERTICALLY ROTATING EVENTS FROM MENDOCINO, CA TO OREGON:
THE GEYSERS ANOMALOUS AREA IS PART OF THIS PUZZLE. BELOW IS AN ANALYSIS OF THE FEATURE NEAR KELSEYVILLE, CA, WHICH PRODUCES STEAM FOR ELECTRICITY, AND WHICH IS SUBTLE IN ITS PRESENTATION. I HAVE ONLY PUT TRACES OF OBVIOUS ANOMALIES, AND WILL AUGMENT THEM AS WE INVESTIGATE THIS AREA SEPARATELY;
The solution of GEYSERS GEOTHERMAL SITE IS FOUND BY LOOKING AT A LARGER ENTITY- THE MOVING MENDOCINO LINEAR AT 40N LATITUDE HAS A CORIOLIS CELL ROTATING ABOUT IT, SIMILAR TO THAT FOUND FOR THE DISCOVERY FEATURE AT HURRICANE FAULT, UTAH: THE LARGE CELL WITH A DIAMETER OF MORE THAN 500 KM, IS ROTATING SIMILARLY TO THE SMALLER ONE IN THE PREVIOUS PHOTO- PRODUCING HEAT ON A MASSIVE SCALE (BUT NOT ENOUGH TO CREATE EXTRUSION).

Virgin Anticline, UT Coriolis rotation through Time

Above is a photo of the Virgin anticline in the distance, taken from the Hurricane fault, Hf, and below is a Google photo looking from space, for orientation:


Below can be seen the Virgin River and the bend in the trend of the anticline:
During the compressional forces of the Laramide Revolution, several large N-S anticlines formed due to the E-W compression.
These include the Cockscomb of east Utah, the East Kaibab monocline, AZ, and ones more distant in New Mexico. The generalized push was from the west, with a resultant orientation of the anticlines perpendicular to the principal stress. This is not the case for the Virgin Anticline, which trends almost parallel to the Pine Valley Mountains (laccolith or intrusion) in SW Utah- orienting NE-SW.
This region of SE Utah is near the great lateral fault system, which runs from the Wasatch Line (Hurricane fault) southward, then SW-ward on to the Valley of Fire, NV to create a zone of sheared earth, with documenting slickensides and circular Crustal features reacting to this CW movement around SW Utah and south NV. Generally the crust immediately adjacent to the rotation rotates CW on the north side and CCW on the south side. The Virgin anticline occurs on both sides of the river which is formed by this shear zone, and is an interesting case study for determining movements made since the Laramide incipience.
Below is a photo of the anticline, taken from the WA County landfill road, looking to the east. Both limbs of the anticline may be seen, and there is an inflection at the Quail Lake Dam, which is shown below in a Google photo, as a space or plan view:
My analysis of the movements made (since the supposed original N-S orientation) is shown below. You can see several circular presentations, and RULES MUST BE USED TO DETERMINE THE ROTATION DIRECTION:
1. WHEN THE RIVER TRACE IS ROTATING CW, AS IN A SINKING CELL (THIS CASE), THE IMMEDIATE ADJOINING CELL WILL ROTATE IN REACTION TO THIS MOVEMENT (CCW). You can see that the Anticline NW limb has been rotated CCW at the inflection.
2. When 2 circular displays are adjacent, they must rotate in harmony, OR ELSE THERE WILL BE HOT SPRINGS OR VULCANISM! THE QUAIL LAKE PRESENTS 2 ROTATIONS, AND THE RESULT OF ALL THIS IS THAT THE ANTICLINE HAS MOVED FROM ITS ORIGINAL ORIENTATION.
3. DETERMINING THE ORIGINAL ORIENTATION BEFORE ROTATION REQUIRES THE ANALYSIS OF RATE OF MOVEMENT OF DOMINANT FAULTING. GEOLOGISTS GENERALLY FIND THE FASTEST MOVEMENT-IN THIS CASE THE WA FAULT TO THE WEST- AND THIS HAS LATERAL MOVEMENT ON THE EAST SIDE TO THE NORTH (LEFT LATERAL FAULT). AS A RESULT, THE ANTICLINE HAS BEEN ROTATED TO A MORE NE-SW ORIENTATION.
Below are shown slickensides on the east side of the lake, by a shear rim of 40 meters drop, and these parallel the lake, orienting N20E to 200 degrees:
AFTER RE-HIKING THE ANTICLINE NEAR HIWAY 9, AT THE VIRGIN RIVER, THERE IS ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE FOR UPLIFT, SHEARING AND ROTATION:


TO BE CONTINUED, WHEN MORE FIELD WORK HAS BEEN DONE, UP ON THE ANTICLINE!

SOLUTION TO THE EASTWARD-MOVING YELLOWSTONE EXTRUSION SITE PUZZLE

As shown in the above TRACK OF THE RHYOLITE EXTRUSIONS, WHICH TERMINATE IN YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, there is an intermittent movement of the extrusions to the east. These started in the MIOCENE, SOME 15 million years prior, and are violent in nature- blasting periodically, and releasing heat today in the park. The siliceous composition indicates that they derive from the CRUST AND NOT THE MANTLE. They have been described as a continental “hotspot” similar to that in HAWAII, supposedly derived from a “plume”, and this is just an assertion, with no evidence to support it.
The first clue to their origin is the double circular path, concave upward for the western art, and concave downward for the later path. This strongly hints involvement with Coriolis Force and Rotation, but there is ALSO a hint that they derive from shear, since they are north of the Equatorial Bulge, EB. We will see that both of these features are involved.
The analysis of the Death Valley anomaly has shown that this western boundary of the Basin and Range, B&R, province is determined by the RISE OF THE SIERRAS, where the height of the mountain range became sufficient in the Oligocene to create TIDAL DRAG TO THE WEST, AND CREATE EXTENSION OF THE B&R. Good evidence for this conclusion is found by measuring the latitude change for the Sierras and the two transforms connecting Midway Island and the Garlock fault system, also Mendocino and the 41 m.y. kink in the HI-Emperor chain. It is about 6 degrees Latitude in both cases, and transforms stretch between both sets of these features. Rise of the Sierras became sufficient at Midway time (28 m.y.) to create TIDAL DRAG TO THE WEST- CREATING THE SHEAR FAULTING ALONG THE TRANSFORMS.

Below is shown a Google photo, with a count of the intermittently-formed valleys in the B&R. They occurred a million or more years apart, sufficiently for gradual extension of B&R, as the Sierras rose in Tertiary time. This correlates with the formation of Rhyolite sites in ID, from the SW border with Oregon, on to Yellowstone NP: Notice that the B&R extension is greater in the south, compared to that in the north. Further evidence of this correlation is shown by greater E-W shift at the Garlock fault, CA for coastlines, compared to that at Mendocino (185 km compared to 100, further north.

INFORMATION FOUND IN THE RHYOLITE TRACK GRAPH:
Several other features are noticed in the EXTRUSION TRACK LEADING TO YNP:
1. The rhyolite sites are small initially, gradually building to calderas 50 km or more- to the EAST;
2. The sites are intermittent, correlating with basins to the south in Nevada (there are about an equal number of valley and sites- these represent SURGES OF CRUSTAL ACTIVITY, approximately 1 million years apart);
3. The sites become more closely positioned as the present location is approached. The valley associated with this- Great Salt Lake- may harbor several N-S basins, which are masked by the salt deposits;
4. The first large rhyolite site occurs near the ID, NV, and OR border, which is near the first B&R valley. This has been shown to be related to the north boundary of the Equatorial Bulge, EB, near 40N Latitude;
5. The velocity of intermittent sites moving to the east is about 2 cm/year, as shown on the first graph showing distance and time of eruption. This compares with the movement of the Los Angeles Garlock fault creating a movement of coastline approximately 1 cm/year at the southern border of the Sierras feature;
6. The NV display of B&R faulting indicates an inverted fan- larger at the base (S. part of NV). This can be accounted by the CW movement of the B&R lateral fault on the south side, and also by the faster rotation of structures closer to the Equator (no influence of EB is expected north of 40N); and,
7. The occurrence of B&R valleys starts with the eastern boundary of the Sierras, and terminates with the Wasatch Line or Scarp. All of this region is expected to be under extension due to the westward movement of the Sierras, compared to compression and CCW movement of the Colorado Plateau, CP.

How does this square with the earlier analysis, where the vertical and horizontal rotations in Oregon create HEAT in the SE corner of the state, and where a projected wedge is created by the expansion of the rising rhyolites masses? I believe this is still true, and is merely an offshoot of the MAIN IMPETUS, OF EXTENDING B&R PROVINCE DUE TO THE WESTWARD MOVEMENT OF THE SIERRAS. The heat is undoubtedly being produced, and the area is being opened similar to wedging, but now it appears that the extension occurs with a PULL FROM THE SIERRAS AS THE TALL MOUNTAINS ARE MOVED TO THE WEST BY TIDAL FRICTION FROM THE MOON.
There is another aberration, created by the Rhyolite Track now occurring at 44N, far from the original bulge boundary at 40N- the border of ID, NV and OR. Although the B&R extends into eastern Idaho, it appears that the rhyolites sites are not only occurring closer in distance and time, but that they are now interfering with the Rocky Mt. chain- correlating with an inflection in the chain going westward (different from the usual circular presentation).
Recall that the Sierras terminated at the 40N latitude, and should affect the B&R no further north than this boundary of EB. The CW rotation of the Great Plains cell is moving the track somewhat to the north (and the Rockies are rotating CCW to the west, as they rise), and the harmony of meshing gears should produce no vulcanism.
The conclusion pertains to the movement of mountain ranges to the west, under the drag produced by their unusual height. THE ROCKIES PRESENT A FEATURE WHICH IS MOVING TO THE WEST ALSO (by tidal friction), AND THIS IS CREATING COMPRESSION OF THE YNP AREA TO STOP FURTHER EXTENSION- TO THE WEST OF THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS.
EVIDENCE FOR EXTENSION EAST OF THE ROCKIES IS FOUND BY LOOKING AT THE NUMEROUS BASINS WHICH EXIST JUST EAST OF THE MOUNTAINS. I worked on several of these- Wattenberg, CO, Bowdoin Dome, MT, and Canadian basins, and realized 30 years ago that there were anomalous fractures above oil and gas fields which delivered exotic dissolved minerals (B, Fl, and Li) to shallow water wells. The easy access of permeability for upward-moving ions is indicative of extension of the subsurface above oil deposits.
CONCLUSIONS:
A. THE YNP EXTRUSION ZONE IS CREATED BY THE EXTENSION RESULTING FROM THE MOVEMENT OF THE SIERRAS WESTWARD- WHICH FORMS BASINS TO THE EAST OF THE SIERRAS- AND TO SHEAR BETWEEN THE NO-BULGE ZONE NORTH OF THE EXTENSIONAL VALLEYS AND THE REGION SOUTH;
B. THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS ARE NOW INFLUENCING YNP, SUCH THAT COMPRESSION FROM THE EAST IS NOW OFF-SETTING THE PREVIOUS EXTENSION. THERE SHOULD BE NO FURTHER VIOLENT EXTRUSIONS, AND THE PRESENT HEAT SHOULD DIE AWAY;
C. SO LONG AS THE TETONS ARE RISING, THERE SHOULD BE CCW MOVEMENT TO THE WEST (RISING PROVINCE) AND THERE SHOULD BE COMPRESSION OFFSETTING THE EXTENSION, ALLOWING EXTRUSION OF RHYOLITE; AND,
D. EXTRUSION WITHIN THE GREAT PLAINS WILL BE FROM LOCAL VENTS, NOT FROM RHYOLITIC BLASTS.

CAVEATS FOR THE ABOVE CONCLUSIOINS:
a. By extrapolation, all feel intuitively that the present outpouring of steam, mud pots, geysers, and fumaroles will continue in YNP;
b. Although the youngest rhyolite extrusions have remained in nearly the same position (moving little eastward), the battering ram of the extension of the B&R is still attempting to pierce the wall of the Rocky Mountains. Mt. Whitney is higher than the highest of Rockies, and the Long Valley is still emitting steam and an occasional MonoCrater. These are testament to the extension of the B&R today. Whether the TIDAL SHOVE OF THE SIERRAS IS GREATER THAN THE RESISTING SHOVE OF THE ROCKIES IS UNKNOWN. AFTER ALL, THE TOTAL AREA OF THE ROCKIES IS GREATER THAN THE SIERRAS, EVEN WHILE THE VERTICAL BULGE IS LESS (MT. WHITNEY IS TALLER THAN THE MANY 13,000 FOOT PEAKS IN COLORADO);
c. ABOVE PHOTO OF THE YELLOWSTONE AREA INDICATES THAT THE BULGE HAS PARTIALLY PENETRATED THE ROCKY MTS, LEAVING TWO INFLECTIONS IN THE ARCUATE PRESENTATION; AND,
d. THERE ARE MANY INDICATIONS THAT YNP AREA IS ACTIVELY UPLIFTING: TILTING LAKES, TREMORS, AND SURGES IN THERMAL ACTIVITY.
WE MUST SEEK MORE INFORMATION TO AUGMENT ANY TENTATIVE CONCLUSION!
Reinforcement for the conclusion that there will be vents instead of violent extrusions TO THE EAST OF THE YELLOWSTONE TRACK is shown for the CAPULIN CRATER, OF NORTHERN NEW MEXICO (EAST OF RATON). THIS IS A SALIENT, WHICH HAS FORMED FROM A “LEAKAGE” OF FRICTIONAL STRESS FROM THE ROCKIES: Capulin (chokecherry, in local terminology) is a young- 30-60k years extrusion of a larger Clayton to Raton, NM eastward salient from the Rockies. I have visited it and find the vent to be an ash fall- somewhat more violent than a simple basaltic type.

Coriolis Rotations aid in understanding EARTH PUZZLES

THE PUZZLE OF REJUVENATION IS SOLVED WITH CW ROTATION OF SHRINKING AND COOLING MAGMA, OCCURRING AFTER PRIMARY EXTRUSION HAS TERMINATED. HEAT OF FRICTION FROM BRITTLE CRUST SCRAPING AGAINST NEIGHBORING ROCK CREATES SMALL MAGMA CHAMBERS LONG AFTER INITIAL MAGMA HAS COOLED! NOTE THE SMALL VENT, NAMED WAIKAPU- WHICH IS LOCATED BY A DRAINAGE BETWEEN HALEAKALA AND VOLCANO TO THE WEST. REJUVENATION CONE COMPOSITION HAS DIFFERENT COMPONENTS AFTER INCORPORATION OF SEA WATER, REEF MATERIAL, AND WEATHERING.

Coriolis Force creates almost All Known Geology Puzzles via LOCAL AND REGIONAL Rotation of the Earth’s Crust
Coriolis Force is most easily seen when draining the bathtub. As the water exits, it spirals counter-clock-wise, CCW, north of the Equator. It is generally ignored, since the flow direction may be reversed by simply intervening and rotating one’s finger in the opposite directories- creating clockwise flow. It is seen by most people as a weak force, and it is caused by the SPIN OF THE EARTH.
At the Equator, the surface velocity (relative to an outer space position, or to the NORTH POLE) of anything on a latitude line is approximately 1000 miles per hour, mph, due to the Earth’s spin. This surface velocity becomes less for any latitude north or south of this location, relative to the earth. At the North Pole, the velocity is zero, even though the angular spin is the same- one revolution per day.
Moving northward from the Equator, the surface velocity lessens about 10 nautical miles for each degree of Latitude increase. Consequently, when a rocket is fired northward from the Equator, the surface of the Earth under it does not move as fast as it did when the rocket was fired. The result is a movement to the right as the rocket encounters higher Latitudes. This occurs even when the rocket is fired southward, since the Earth now moves faster to the left under the rocket, and the rocket doesn’t keep up- again resulting in a rightward move in the northern hemisphere. When watching weather systems (moving air), this results in a CCW rotation for low pressure cells (weather-producing, where the air is moving toward the center of the cell) and CW rotation for high-pressure cells (fair weather and sunny skies, moving outward from the pressure source).
This movement depends upon the viscosity of the system, and since air has the smallest viscosity, the weather systems move across the screen and rotate quickly- on a daily basis. The same result occurs for the earth’s Crust, except now the viscosity is much more- on the order of a 100 million times as much as for air. The movement is not noticed by observers on the Earth, since in most cases the velocity is on the order of a millimeter, mm, per year. This is about the thickness of a fingernail, and mostly can be ignored. However, for the earth and Geologic time (in millions of years), this small movement becomes significant- one kilometer per million years.
Considering that 65 million years have occurred since the Dinosaurs have been extinct, the movement of 65 km since this Cretaceous time is very noticeable. As an example, rock rotating along the great Basin and Range, B&R, lateral fault noticeable in the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone (Aztec in Nevada), has moved from southern Utah to the Valley of Fire State Park in NV, during this span of time. This lateral displacement may be insignificant for Man’s lifetime scale, but important when finding that the movement of the rock has created a GEOLOGICAL ANOMALY.
These rotating cells are easily seen on the Google Earth map- as circular features creating arcuate river paths or as fossil traces on the surface of the earth. They rotate CW for sinking areas (basins or sinking ground), and CCW for rising areas (mountains, magmas, or salt domes). The rotation orientation may be noticed by looking for the drag of river banks- one side relative to the other. In the field, the rotation creates what is known as slickensides- slick silicate surfaces on rock which may shine in the sunlight (even on dark limestone). Sometimes they will exhibit striations or etched parallel lines showing the lateral movement- with claw marks showing that a pebble in the rock has dug into the opposite side to show direction of drag.
Use of this technique simplifies structural geology considerably, since with its use the fault reversal noticed near vulcanism is related to the original heating (rise) of the magma, versus the shrinking (sinking) of the cooling mass (SOMETIMES ALLOWING THE CRUST TO REVERSE ITS DIRECTION OF MOVEMENT). Other enigmas include the occurrence of rejuvenation cones on the islands of Hawaii, where two cooling volcanoes rotate similarly (Maui), creating friction and heat between them (end result- a small cone, Waikapu). These anomalies are easily found by locating circular river paths on Google Earth photos. Circular cells adjacent to an arcuate river path rotate CW on the inside of a circular path (sinking), while uplifts or hills and mountains rotate CCW (uplift) on the outside adjacent contact of a circular river path. Case studies show that most of the Anomalies not understood by Geologists can be clarified with the use of a few Coriolis Rules. These will be enumerated for cases shown further down in the Blog.
