Episode #045: Phenomenal Ice Age Lake Agassiz and Megaflood Spillways
09/26/20 • 111 min
https://RandallCarlson.com/links https://youtube.com/TheRandallCarlson https://youtube.com/geocosmicrex RC wonders why there has been no coherent theory that connects all the known megaflood events with the rapid deglaciation from 14.6 – 11.6ka. Lake Agassiz was like an inland sea of fresh water, dwarfing the modern “Great Lakes” that drained off thru multiple routes back to the oceans, in many places with known catastrophic erosion. Massive mid-continent spillways contain the meandering underfit modern rivers, but were once channels for outrageous volumes of meltwater. We question the formation of glacial Lake Missoula and the force that pushed the first domino and initiated the sequence of catastrophes, as we continue to build our vocabulary and grammar that is allowing us to read the language of the landscapes – known as geomorphology. Identical features are on Mars and in stream-beds, illustrating the scale-invariant nature of water doing its work of erosion and deposition. In a final rant during this distributary episode, Randall supports Graham Hancock and bashes those that ask for credentials. Kosmographia Ep045 The Randall Carlson Podcast with Brothers of the Serpent – Kyle and Russ, Normal Guy Mike and GCREX admin Bradley, from 08/31/20.

Episode #044: Megafloods - MARS, Missoula, Lake Agassiz
https://RandallCarlson.com/links https://youtube.com/TheRandallCarlson https://youtube.com/geocosmicrex As we get deeper into the geomorphic evidence for megafloods, RC provides some historical reference for the evolution of the so-called “Missoula Floods” that were identified in the 1920’s by Harlen Bretz, who traversed the Channeled Scablands of eastern Washington. He called them the Spokane Floods and speculated that the floods came from accelerated melting of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet, but later tentatively accepted the uniformitarian explanation that an ice dam repeatedly formed and released a giant impounded lake from western Montana. We then continue to assess phenomenal Lake Agassiz and its many outflow spillways to the south thru southern Manitoba, the Dakotas and Minnesota, funneling into the channel at Big Stone Lake, and compare some of the identical megaflood features that have been imaged on planet Mars.

Episode #046: Potholes and Mid-continent Megafloods - Lake Agassiz Spillways
https://RandallCarlson.com/links https://youtube.com/TheRandallCarlson https://youtube.com/geocosmicrex While reviewing the events around the catastrophic drainings of Glacial Lake Agassiz, the ongoing question arises: What was the impulse of energy that initiated the domino procession of megafloods? We continue to marvel at the oversized mid-continent spillways in the Dakotas, Minnesota, and Wisconsin – investigating multiple sites with the “advanced viewer” on the USGS National Map website, with particular focus on the underfit rivers, the massive potholes along the St. Croix (that we explored with Graham Hancock in 2014), and the discharges thru Lakes Nipigon and Superior. RC then broadens the connotations of “lake” to include more temporary impoundments of meltwater, which leads to a critical assessment of the current model of Lake Missoula and its Ice Dam. And in preparation for next episode’s special guest, Jerome Lesemann, we get an introduction to Canada’s extensive drumlin fields...
