In light of the data provided above, a few questions for consideration:
What is the explanation for marine sediments and shorelines deposited to elevations far above modern sea level in the vicinity of formerly glaciated coastal areas?
What is the explanation for the modern measurement of uplift in formerly glaciated regions (without active tectonics)? Why is the magnitude of uplift greatest near the central parts of former ice sheets, and why is the direction of increasing uplift rates identical to the observed warping of paleo shoreline elevations than have been dated to various time intervals throughout deglaciation, with the older and more northern shorelines warped to a greater extent?
The ice wall wiki page has one peer-reviewed source. This is a compilation of all the available data at the time (1982). Why is the wealth of data that was found in that compilation ignored save for the coastline mapping found in the table? How did the authors quantify the proportion of floating vs grounded ice wall margins?
Does FES discount all the available data from the interior of Antarctica? Ice cores, subglacial lake sampling, rock sampling, radio echo sounding, satellite velocity measurements, gravity data?
Why dont we talk about the similarities between Antarctica and greenland? Aside from much higher summer insulation and surface melting, the two ice caps are very similar.
I just really like glaciers. And it kills me that a big chunk of FET relies on discounting some amazing advances weve made in what is absolutely one of the most hostile research environments on the planet. Really what bugs me is the wiki articles on ice-related phenomena, the ice wall and isostasy. Proposing radically different ideas is fine, but neither page contains references that are anywhere near adequate for the claims made.
