The poles of rotation

Looking for future roads, Milankovitch referred to a phenomenon for which he was Alfred Wegener `s, especially Beno Gutenberg constantly suggested to study. These were the poles of rotation or path by which moved a half rotation of the earth. The question was highly original and challenging, but with a lot of insurmountable obstacles and unknowns that had to be discovered. This issue dealt with and others are more unsuccessful than successful, and after a mighty missed time and energy usually gave up.

Milankovitch has also had a similar crisis, but its persistence has been fruitless, and together with his counterpart Vojislav Miskovic came to the final results. Through a mathematical turn our pole position from - ∞ up to today and from today to + ∞. This is the Milankovitch, working on a problem, both introduced and the past and the future of our planet, and learned what was and what will be the fate of its continents and oceans.

Table I. The locations of poles of rotation as it is mathematically calculate my Milankovitch 1932nd year.

The poles of rotation

* Data in the first column are expressed in years as Milankovitch did not have a sufficient number of input parameters to give a more precise regulation. According to recent results should be: 1 = 7.5 million years ago.

First things first and see what the Milankovitch calculated mathematically. Commenting on the history of the poles of rotation Milankovitch says: "During paleozoikuma was located north pole of rotation near the point φ = 18o46 ', λ =-166o39" Today's network of meridians and parallel. This point represents the unstable equilibrium position of the poles of rotation, which had to be abandoned at the slightest disturbance of this balance, and such disorders were, in the past of the country in abundance. First of all, it took a very long time until a half away considerably from the position because of his surroundings in his field Ω Grads particularly small, and therefore, speed and half-minor. "

This was one in a series of conclusions relating to the earth's past. From the mathematical positions of poles of rotation could be made much more but Milankovićevo time were not known to the facts which occurred today.

In the future, puree Milankovitch, the movement of the pole with a constantly declining rate and bending slightly to the east, approaching the point φ = 66o41 ', λ = 51o18', which lies near the mouth of the river Pecora, and only after an infinitely long time came over here. So the mathematical calculations of Milankovitch's uspioo to reach "the end of the world."

The trajectory of poles

Numerical secular path of rotation poles projected into the future (by Milankovićevim calculations). The arrow indicated the direction to the infinite future.

The first impression is very strong that as the cold Siberia and poorly written - it gets even colder. Its western parts are moving towards the pole, and the whole Asia, Europe, and with it, its inseparable part. We watch this process because it is unstoppable like volcanoes, earthquakes, floods, rotation, smejna seasons and not to mention all those occurrences and the forces that man can only describe, study and interpret, but not to act on them. Milankovitch's soul 's geographic marked with ψ, but over time, virtually all domesticated that it obilležava with λ, which is done on this occasion.

Road to the north of the Scandinavian peninsula and continue to suffer increasingly harsh effects of cold climates, and its northernmost deijlovi will slowly become icy desert. At first glance it seems drastic than what is predicted for the Milankovitch 28 000 years, the border of grape vines, olives, wheat and fruit. Fortunately, there is nothing contradictory here, since these years belongs to a cycle of increased solar radiation, and cooling and are moving northward through the natural course that will pass our planet and its individual continents.

In Europe this story has no prospect of a favorable climate. Apart from Scandinavia all the Baltic countries will experience a similar fate, just as today the northern part of Europe, Polish, German, Denmark and the Benelux countries. Repeat the air from time Wirm III that these spaces Pihač northern winds and the proximity of the North Pole ice influence the frequent bursts of waves. The mean annual temperature puppy for two degrees Celsius, with an additional close to the North Pole as much.

When it comes to moving Europe towards the north, to keep in mind one very important step fact. It will move linearly or all of its points, all the valleys, mountains, rivers and other geographical settings have not always the same distance. Translation involves the movement of the full system with no fixed points. Europe will, however, move at a very complex path, it will consist of a rotating and translating motion. In more complex movements will be included and other continental masses, especially central Africa as part of an ancient continent where scientists are named after the old Gondwana region in India, which has pushed millions of years the European continent to the north.

Complex movement disorders initially leads to a regulated system, or entropy. The physical meaning of the individual peaks become even higher, the distance between the system increases, the resulting new hills, deepening the river bed, move rivers, shrugs courts and create a deeper depression, stagnant bodies of water disappear. Alps are all senior, Skadar Lake as cryptodepression everything below ...

North Pole will over time gain "solid ground" as opposed to the current situation. Approaching the coastal parts of Siberia allow greater expansion of glaciers will be able to freely penetrate to a point south. This influence will be expressed already in position +2 points from the table presented by Milankovitch and for which we can say that will happen in the next 10-15 million years ago.

The position of the continents

a) the position of continents reconstructed based on the ancient Earth's magnetism. Eurasia is rotated clockwise to clockwise, and Africa in the opposite direction.

Position 2 continents

b) At the same time took place and move to the west of South America and Africa and Asia to the northeast.

For this information, modern man would not respond. The fate of half a rotation seemingly will not affect humans. Path pole of rotation will not be mathematically perfect as Milankovitch presented. Every continent, or even each island will have its own specific trajectory. North America will have its own path, however, his Greenland, Africa special, because it will split along the great trench in two parts, and some smaller parts will be permanently separated from her. If we are able to observe the Earth over time, only one million years into the future, they would be surprised how much the individual appearance of the continents changed.

The final balance will be achieved in the final or future time which we call plus infinity, and these moments will be market and the final end of a planet on which life was quite an ordinary occurrence.
