Comment on Mountains Sway to the Seismic Song of Earth by Sherry https://eos.org/articles/mountains-sway-to-the-seismic-song-of-earth#comment-23042 Fri, 28 Mar 2025 09:13:58 +0000 https://eos.org/?p=177428#comment-23042 I read this chapter in the Quran, Chapter 27, verse 88 ( Clear Quran, tranlated in English), researched it and found your article with the scientific evidence. Thank you.

"Now that see the mountains, thinking they are firmly fixed, but they are traveling 'just' like clouds. 'That is' the design of God. Who has perfected everything. Surely He is All Aware of what you do.

Comment on NASA Abandons Pledge to Put Women, Astronauts of Color on the Moon by Timtim https://eos.org/research-and-developments/nasa-abandons-pledge-to-put-women-astronauts-of-color-on-the-moon#comment-23041 Thu, 27 Mar 2025 15:57:18 +0000 https://eos.org/?p=234362#comment-23041 Christopher Webb is woefully ignorant of the harmful effect of DEI and its predecessors. A review of decades of Supreme Court opinions is the first step to learn the difference between affirmative action aspirations and affirmative action effects.

Comment on Anthropocene Deserves Official Recognition, Some Experts Maintain by Robert J Miskines https://eos.org/research-spotlights/anthropocene-deserves-official-recognition-some-experts-maintain#comment-23040 Thu, 27 Mar 2025 06:05:43 +0000 https://eos.org/?p=234380#comment-23040 I agree with McCarthy et al. Perhaps humans are more of an geologic boudary event (like a minor extinction) rather than a geologic period. We cause change but of unknown duration or impact.

Comment on Crevasses on the Greenland Ice Sheet Are Growing by disqus_Qyb2Soyr14 https://eos.org/articles/crevasses-on-the-greenland-ice-sheet-are-growing#comment-23032 Sat, 15 Mar 2025 10:03:13 +0000 https://eos.org/?p=233941#comment-23032 A recent paper says marine ice cliff instability won't happen because the ice is strong enough to support mile high cliffs. No way!!! That ice is full of cracks and crevices, mullion holes and channels, air pockets and sheer margins. Expect rapid and catastrophic sea level rise once the grounding lines of marine terminating glaciers retreat into retrograde slopes. That process is happening to one of Greenland's largest glaciers, Sermeq Kujalleq right now. That glacier drains the southern ice sheet that sits below sea level. Once the ocean gets under the ice sheet it will collapse. Picture a giant slurpee in a warm swimming pool on a July afternoon.

Comment on Crowds Stand Up for Science Across the United States by Hagen Marilia https://eos.org/articles/crowds-stand-up-for-science-across-the-united-states#comment-23025 Tue, 11 Mar 2025 14:47:42 +0000 https://eos.org/?p=233537#comment-23025 It would be beneficial to define what science truly is. Recently, discussions seem more focused on gender and skin color than actual scientific issues. Many protestors contribute little beyond repetitive assertions about CO2 harming the planet and human impact. But does anyone genuinely believe that speeches and waving flags will make a real change? Regardless, of the number of flags, or the diversity of voices, the planet will continue its orbit around the Sun, unaffected by anger or frustration. The Sun rises for everyone.

Comment on Expedition 403: Sailing the Last Expedition of the JOIDES Resolution by Menthol https://eos.org/opinions/expedition-403-sailing-the-last-expedition-of-the-joides-resolution#comment-23022 Sun, 09 Mar 2025 19:45:26 +0000 https://eos.org/?p=233150#comment-23022 It's great to read about the amazing, positive experiences that these ECRs had on the JR. What a blessing!

I'm not NSF, so I don't claim to know all the inside football, but I'm not sure it's fair to talk about "NSF's decision" as if it was made in a vacuum. NSF has had, and continues to have, the same annual funding for ocean drilling that it's always had. The money that has fallen away over the years is the international partners' contributions. Maybe you can argue that NSF could or should have "found" extra money somewhere else in its budget, but that of course means that some other program would feel the same excruciating loss that ocean drilling is feeling now.

It's certainly a difficult loss, but there's more to US ocean drilling than the JR. There's still a U.S. program. Opportunities to sail won't be as frequent, but let's not throw in the towel.

Can't have science without money, eh? Get a job. Stop leeching off society. We are sick of you parasites. Do something productive.
