    I'm a doctoral student with 7+ years of geology experience and this was very educational for me.

      Hopefully if your experience had been in Australia it wouldn't have been. In which case meaningless comment.

    2016 2nd wettest winter in recorded history . reduced rainfall not a problem . Dams like Beardmore trap the water for cotton growing . its a shallow dam . it needs all water released and dig the dam deeper to reduce evaporation . increase the volume and it can send a flow continuously .

    Thanks blokes, a little too short for this ole fella to follow but very worthwhile. If we only stop cotton being watered from these resources we'd have a bit better flow. Try growing hemp (non smoking varieties) for much better productivity and everyone will win!

    Have and add some pdf links to the Geology of Darling Murray Basin to your Geo txt above this insert.There is no mention of the opening up of the Southern Ocean with the rifting of Antarctica and Australia which 100 Mya would have a great impact on the evolution of the Murray Basin and the final stages of the geological history Tasmania and the Mainland, the uplift of the Great Deviding Range, and the opening of the Coral and Tasman Sea with the rifting of Zelandia and creating the current Continental Shelf, Continental Slope and the Tasman chain of undewater volcanoes............in the Abyss.

    2:50 when you said mountains going as high as 4000 meters
    I couldn’t find evidence or data telling about the great dividing ranges getting that high
    Do you have evidence of this

    The Great Dividing Range was created by a "Hot Spot" that the continent "sailed over", not tectonic plate movement/activity! This created volcanoes that the remnants of are evident today, such as The Glass house mountains and Mt Warning>

    Weirdly, we have a big continent island of this size, and equally odd is the fact that it is the home to the most bizarre two-legged primate and marsupial, Australians, and Kangaroos. Studies show they were brothers 160 million years ago before the infamous bar fight, which resulted in kangaroo kicking Australians out and rowing away the whole mainland.

    Always the catatrophising! You say that 25,000 years ago when the planet was 10 deg warmer it rained *more*. How then will warming of the planet due to climate change mean *less* rain?

    • @artistjoh
      @artistjoh 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Roger, as the Earth gets warmer evaporation increases, leading to more rain overall. However, where the rain falls changes. It means that some areas that are currently dry may well get wetter. The problem is that our current agricultural industry and infrastructure was built over a couple of centuries in the places where rain falls now, or depends on rivers fed by current or historic rainfall patterns. Climate change is already disrupting weather patterns and the long term trend in Australia is for greater weather extremes but also increasingly longer and more common droughts. Other parts of the world currently dry may well get more rainfall and benefit from the changes. Unfortunately disruption will be costly for some.
      However, looking at larger timescales can show that very dramatic changes do occur. My area of study has included the origins of Sydney sandstone. It started during the period of Gondwanaland. At that time there was a huge equatorial mountain range that caused much of the supercontinent to be very dry. However, at that time Australia was joined to Antarctica and was much further south, and it was wet. A river larger than the Amazon originated in a giant mountain range that stretched from the Broken Hill region into Antarctica. Broken Hill is the eroded remains of that range. That river wore down those mountains and deposited so much sand that the sandstone is some five kilometers thick. At the time the Earth’s temperature was around 6 degrees warmer than now and dinosaurs and other similar kinds of species were the ones best adapted to that world. It is not catastrophising to note the significant and very real changes that have occurred in the past and to be aware that similar changes are possible in the future.
      Humans have evolved during the current ice age, and more importantly, complex society has arisen in a relatively benign and fairly stable climate during the last 10,000 years or so. Our cities and farms have grown where we have historically found water and land suited to food production. There is no law of nature that says that will always stay the same. Quite the opposite.
      We are currently seeing temperatures ramping up at a rate rarely seen in the geological record and we simply do not know whether we can manage climate change, or whether it might induce a runaway effect as the northern permafrosts melt, and Greenland loses its ice cap. We can see historically, vast changes across the planet as temperatures have fluctuated, and we just do not know whether civilisation collapse is a possibility if climate change gets out of hand, but the archaeological record is littered with the ruins of ancient civilisations that collapsed as water supplies failed. Our scientific civilisation is probably better suited to the needs of adaptation, but the current changes are greater than challenges of the past, and we need to be prepared for the worst, and hope for the best, and learn as much as we can about how life adapted in the past.

    The map of the MDB is really poor. Why not show the watershed of the basin? Include the Qld rivers like the Paroo, Warrego, Balonne, McIntyre etc. The most northern point of the Warrego catchment is north-east of Tambo. The basin is a catchment area, not just the two rivers it is named after. I would have thought people who are geographers would get this right. Go back to year 10 geography. Interesting video though.

      Collingwood Forever g’day, we aren’t geographers or claiming to be so, this was done as a brief teaching resource for school students as part of an outdoor education subject. Sorry it isn’t up to your standard. Have a good one. Also Go West Coast Eagles!
