It is possible the mantel is reacting to heat trapping blanket of Methane above Earth growing and heat is on the move upward. It's likely heat had to get at underside of permafrost cap rock for lack of better word.

Stockholm University researchers found that some of that methane is leaking, and even making it to the ocean’s surface. They called the discovery “somewhat of a surprise,” which, according to Box, doesn’t quite communicate its importance. Motherboard senior editor Brian Merchant, sensing an opportunity to speak climate in more accessible language, followed up with Box, who stood by his assertion (and use of foul language): <br /><br />http://www.swerus-c3.geo.su.se/index.php/swerus-c3-in-the-media/news/177-swerus-c3-first-observations-of-methane-release-from-arctic-ocean-hydrates<br /><br />“Even if a small fraction of the Arctic carbon were released to the atmosphere, we’re fucked,” he told me. What alarmed him was that ”the methane bubbles were reaching the surface. That was something new in my survey of methane bubbles,” he said.<br /><br />“The conventional thought is that the bubbles would be dissolved before they reached the surface and that microorganisms would consume that methane, and that’s normal,” Box went on. But if the plumes are making it to the surface, that’s a brand new source of heat-trapping gases that we need to worry about.<br />Sunoffirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00631660353919818054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3046701423623795423.post-41751773778411280312014-08-07T00:10:29.914-07:002014-08-07T00:10:29.914-07:00A spiking pulse going on right now without a defin...A spiking pulse going on right now without a definable limit for the moment?
