Scientists find evidence of catastrophic sand avalanches, sea level changes in Gulf of Mexico
An international team of marine research scientists working for the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) have found new evidence that links catastrophic sand avalanches in deep Gulf waters to rapid sea level changes. By analyzing downhole measurements and freshly retrieved sediment cores, IODP scientists are reconstructing the history of a basin formed approximately 20,000 years ago, when sea level fell so low that the Texas shoreline shifted almost 100 miles to the south. The data are important to reconstructing climate change history and gathering insights about the development and placement of natural resources, particularly gas and oil deposits.

Stuff has gotta go somewhere. And this is the same thing that is happening with the crap that we humans have been throwing into the rivers and streams too. All of that lovely chemical plant discharge, among other equally pleasant things…

Maybe it’s just me but this article seems to be disjointed and needs a bit more info or links to flesh it out. And that paragraph at the end feels like it was just kinda stuck on cause it had no place else to go…
