Wrong after only 3 words. Congratulation!

Convection implies upward and downward circulation.
What we see is what we get. We only have evidence of upward movement
(diapirism).

Guess what? auxotectonics implies precisely there should be ascending
material making its way toward the surface... Go figure who's right...

No, no, no, ...You're confusing Plate Tectonics with continental

I have nothing to say to guys who believe in a concept that makes a

who are dragging those great outlines into a similar situation by

but so far,I have the distinct and unpleasant feeling that the

What people hope to achieve by ignoring geodynamics I do not know,it
has been on the table in its present form for a good few years now
without the slightest sign of its adoption.

Ee or any other junk concept has no interest for me,so enjoy it to
your heart's content or perhaps keep the convection cell guys
interested but I would not look at another post with that mindless
conclusion.A few weeks ago I would have said only under the most
extreme courtesy but now it ranks up there with a flat Earth notion.

Let me see if I can summarize your rambling statement.

You don't think that geophysicists can figure out why the Earth is
oblate rather than spherical. While you think that differential rotation
(which happens in stars) occurs in the Earth, you're adamant that
convection (which happens in stars) does not happen in the Earth. And
you have no data to support any of your claims.

Do I have it right?


Convection in stars is speculative,a star's rotation and differntial
rotation is not and neither is variations in maximum Equatorial
speed,variations in differential rotation rates and variation in
sphericity.

At this stage I think both you with your convection cells notions and
the ee guys are well suited to each other leaving me to remain
content with geodynamics and its geological influences.I would have
nothing to gain with people who wish to remain with a thermally driven
convection cells and no geodynamics involved in geological evolution
no more than I would benefit from discussing matters with ee guys.


If you cannot follow the reasoning in its most basic outlines from
stellar rotational dynamics to generalised rotational dynamics in the
form of differential rotation bands and sphericity then perhaps plate
tectonics is lost to a balooning or geostationary Earth ideas.Go ahead
and taunt each other and enjoy your wonderful convection cells notions
and the composition,viscosity and all that comes with it.It is truly a
remarkable conclusion to plate tectonics and befitting the
intelligence of people who cannot make a simple leap from observed
rotational dynamics and spheriocity even though elements of it have
been known for centuries,Differential rotation adds more detail n but
I am not going to bother appealing to guys who do not have the
intelligence to recognise it as a generalised dynamic.

Be happy with your geostationary mechanism and keep those expanding
Earth guys at bay with your sharp intellects,do you hear now and make
sure you growl and sound authoritative.

This has gone on for far too long,differential rotation as a
generalised dynamic has been on the table for years while nobody
else has proposed exactly what causes the Earth sphericity to deviate
40km.

The onus is on those to come up with the actual rotational dynamics
for sphericity if they cannot accept differential rotation as a
generalised dynamic,I can't imagine how an alternative explanation
using actual observations is possible given the detailed analysis
already being done on rotating stars and the degree of sphericity with
respect to variations in Equiatorial speeds.

Until somebody actually comes out with a explanation for the Earth
sphericity other than the details I added in terms of rotational
dynamics then I have nothing to gain from any response,even silence
looks stupid when geodynamics remains cut off from geological
evolution.

Good luck to you and your stationary Earth or expanding Earth
perspectives,I enjoy my rotating Earth perspective regardless and I
mean that.

Adapting stellar rotational dynamics to geodynamics as a general
principle for rotating bodies in a fluid/flexible state and
specifically the correlation between maximum equtorial
speed,differential rotation and sphericity is already done as a matter
of course,it just needs the incentive of a common mechanism for
crustal motion/evolution to create a package worth pursuing.

You have fun arguing with the convection cell guys with your wonderful
balooning Earth,I really mean it - enjoy yourself .

No no, .. Hang on. Oriel's right here. The reason why nobody's
picking Earth rotation up as an agent of crustal deformation is
exactly that - "everybody knows that". There's no money or kudos in
swinging on down to the forum like a cool nude dude and saying, "Hey
guys, I bet that you didn't know that the Earth is rotating?"

Hey, Oriel, ..Looks like it's over to you to carry the can. You'll
need to get out the lipstick though, ..and put on the chocolate drops
and the whiskers if you want to carry on talking to these guys. They
won't let you in the door unless you're suitably attired. Make sure

If it didn't rotate (and was fluid) it would be spherical. But it
does (and it's not), ..so it isn't. ('Few get my drift..) By 40km.
It's not a lot. The thickness of the crust. Which is like the shell
of an egg, relatively speaking.

We're not talking big bikkies here, at least not when it comes to the
bits that are bursting open at the ridges. In fact it's a lot less
than that - about 8km, ..1/5th of the eggshell.

It's when we get to the subduction zones it's different. Not
40km, ... not 400km, ..but double that to 1000km. *Now* you're
talking bikkies. Bigger ones.

**BUT** (The differential rotational dynamics you're talking about,
about latitudinal differentials (transform faults) are all in the
small bikkie basket. What *you* have to do is start plugging the
message that this differnetial rotation you're on about is valid for
subduction zones. which are the bikkies in the BIG basket -
(remembering that there isn't a gradation between this lot and the
small ones.)

**THEN** you have to start talking about differential rotation on flat
dislocations, ..on the earth's shells. And then you're not just
talking (geodynamically speaking), you're grunting. People will (or
should) listen. Because what you're talking about then is not just
fiddling with the mantle, but with the integrated picture of the
entire continental margins of the planet.

And when you do that (oink oink) you're talking reassembly of the
continents across the Pacific. Just as directly as you can with the
Atlantic and the Indian and Southern Oceans. No probs cobs (EE)
mate. Spin leads to Earth Expansion, and it's that simple.

mechanism to stop 'convection cells' diluting the main argument for
plate motion and its long and short term effects.

I cannot imagine what dynamicists are going to apply to the Earth's
interior to generate the  40 km spherical deviation insofar as the
generalised rotational dynamics will almost certainly involve
differential rotation of the rotating composition in a fluid/flexible
state.There is no great upheavel with current plate tectonic outlines
other than the more productive geodynamics will answer more questions
than it will raise and besides,the 'convection cell' notions in
setting the internal composition and viscosity is not so important or
so far down the road that it cannot  be set aside for a more realistic
approach.

Maybe the problems are no longer technical but the bigger headache of
the 'scientific method' ideologies and that I cannot get involved in
insofar as it is what is generating junk concepts which are now in
competition with plate tectonics or keeping a geostationary mechanism.

Let me see if I can summarize your rambling statement.

You don't think that geophysicists can figure out why the Earth is
oblate rather than spherical. While you think that differential rotation
(which happens in stars) occurs in the Earth, you're adamant that
convection (which happens in stars) does not happen in the Earth. And
you have no data to support any of your claims.

Do I have it right?

This has gone on for far too long,differential rotation as a
generalised dynamic has been on the table for years while nobody
else has proposed exactly what causes the Earth sphericity to deviate
40km.

Yes, they have! The Earth rotates. The resulting centripetal
acceleration deforms the sphere into slight oblateness.

Quote:
The onus is on those to come up with the actual rotational dynamics
for sphericity if they cannot accept differential rotation as a
generalised dynamic,I can't imagine how an alternative explanation
using actual observations is possible given the detailed analysis
already being done on rotating stars and the degree of sphericity with
respect to variations in Equiatorial speeds.

You're very good at writing run-on sentences.

Quote:
Until somebody actually comes out with a explanation for the Earth
sphericity other than the details I added in terms of rotational
dynamics then I have nothing to gain from any response,even silence
looks stupid when geodynamics remains cut off from geological
evolution.

Good luck to you and your stationary Earth or expanding Earth
perspectives,I enjoy my rotating Earth perspective regardless and I
mean that.

Oh??? Somehow I got the impression that the endless emotional rambles
you write on the subject indicated that this was merely a passing fancy.

Convection in stars is speculative,a star's rotation and differntial
rotation is not and neither is variations in maximum Equatorial
speed,variations in differential rotation rates and variation in
sphericity.

At this stage I think both you with your convection cells notions and
the ee guys are well suited to each other leaving me to remain
content with geodynamics and its geological influences.I would have
nothing to gain with people who wish to remain with a thermally driven
convection cells and no geodynamics involved in geological evolution
no more than I would benefit from discussing matters with ee guys.


If you cannot follow the reasoning in its most basic outlines from
stellar rotational dynamics to generalised rotational dynamics in the
form of differential rotation bands and sphericity

Oh, I followed the reasoning. I just don't agree with it.

then perhaps plate
tectonics is lost to a balooning or geostationary Earth ideas.Go ahead
and taunt each other and enjoy your wonderful convection cells notions
and the composition,viscosity and all that comes with it.It is truly a
remarkable conclusion to plate tectonics and befitting the
intelligence of people who cannot make a simple leap from observed
rotational dynamics and spheriocity even though elements of it have
been known for centuries,Differential rotation adds more detail n but
I am not going to bother appealing to guys who do not have the
intelligence to recognise it as a generalised dynamic.

Well, there you go again, insulting people's intelligence rather than
making intelligent arguments of your own, supported by actual data.

Be happy with your geostationary mechanism and keep those expanding

I don't have to growl or try to sound authoritative. I have the luxury
of plenty of facts on my side.
