Part 4 Mysterious Receding Seas

[Richardguy9]

Ancient cities were established on river estuaries for access to fresh water and the sea. Sea level, then as now, was always assumed to be a constant: it remained the same from generation to generation. Silt was always blamed for the closure of the river mouth. Nineveh the most ancient city in Mesopotamia was established on the estuary of the Tigris River. Today Nineveh is 700 feet above sea level and 600 miles from the sea. I am sorry if I am missing the point.

you are missing the point,

the river beds build up with silt, a mixture of fine grain sand that has been worn smaller with the moving of the tides and clay.

it continues to travel inland as each tide turns..

I would say growing shallow rather than receding to explain this

thats if I dodn't want to cause misguided panic..

but these days thats all the rage with uneducated knuckle heads.

Thanks again msam1970 for that piece of information on Camber Castle. I passed it on to others, The sea has receded from the coast of Britain since the middle ages. All the south coast Cinque Ports among others have moved inland by three miles. On the Channel Coast the land is slumping as Britain tears itself away from Mainland Europe. There are forrests sunken under the British Channel. Churchill alluded to them in his book" The History of the English Speaking Peoples" Good relevant stuff.

Camber castle 1626 decommissioned,

Built 1512 at 30 feet sea cannon. raised 30ft to 60 feet. Seas retreated causing cannon to be out of shot for harbour protection.

King Henry VIII 1500-1600 make Believe?

The castle is still there. Harbour protection impossible, built for

as I listen to this, all I can think is that he is a snake-oil salesman, he isn't trying to prove that the earth is growing, only convince simple-minded folk that it is. If he was a scientist he would show us charts from coastlines a hundred years ago and today. Show us salt deposits that were put there when the sea receded. Show that it is a receding sea that causes it to require dredging by showing us the data to prove it. He is only trying to convince those with little knowledge of geology.

@satanisthetruegod666, you want to see the salt deposits left by receding seas?. get your google earth out...... they're all over the place!.

Read the article in the New York Times.

"Jersey Rights to Shore Prove Costly to Casinos" June 5th 1981 republished September 16 2007.

I have seen the sea recede over years in Mexico and Key West.

Bridge failures on the Mississippi are not new. There will be more. The Mississippi is an earthquake fault that is slowly expanding by seismic creep

I would like to hear from viewers who have witnessed the seas recession in their locations around the world. Our viewers are from every country on earth. We would like to hear what you have observed with the seas recession and where. Thanks

@fraustrated I live on the coast in Charleston SC. Sea Levels are rising here. I live in a 50 year old home. The houses across the street overlook the intercoastal waterway. These yards flood due to the tides. Downtown charleston has streets that flood at high tide. Most of the barrier islands here are loosing land.

Yes sea levels vary. I have fossils of sand dollars from 100 miles inland. I also have Clovis spear points from the coastal region that are 13000 years old.
