THE Cosmic radiation has revealed a major setback in the glaciers that really makes your hair stand on end. We are witnessing a change in the Andes that reveals to us that something is wrong with our planet. The so-called climate change, which some deny and others see coming at high speed, is causing a series of easily perceptible changes. Experts examine a situation that really surprises more than one, with a downside that no one would expect.
In Spain we are beginning a major change of direction, from this summer with heat waves, to an autumn that could be colder than we imagine. These are days of changes that we must prepare for. Without a doubt, we have before us an important change of cycle that could end up being the one that invites us to reflect. With increasingly hot summers and climate changes that will be very present in the days that await us. This cosmic radiation is one of the most alarming of recent times that we must easily know so as not to get lost.
The Andes are on alert
THE The Andean region is one of the world’s great ice reserves. and snow on the planet. These white peaks that alert local residents and those who cross this central zone have revealed data that are particularly difficult to understand, especially if we take into account what they imply.
We are facing a series of changes and modifications that await us and that could end up being those that invite us to reflect. In situations that can be repeated or even worsen over time, the consequences could be terrible.
Especially if we do not stop climate change that is getting worse over time. It seems that we are facing a situation that could end up being the one that will accompany us in some key days. The time will come to start thinking about what is happening to our planet.
Know that, even if it happens thousands of kilometers away, the effects on our country can be enormous. We will have to prepare ourselves to be able to face a future that the experts will be in charge of revealing. From the El Tiempo channel, they warn us of this alarming retreat of the glaciers.
Cosmic radiation reveals alarming glacier retreat
He Alarming glacier retreat worries expertsThese data discovered after a harsh revelation of cosmic radiation have become a problem that we must prepare for. The time will come to learn about this recent study that El tiempo is responsible for explaining.
As these experts warn: “Research reveals that the Andean glaciers are currently experiencing an unprecedented retreat. Currently, areas of ice are exposed that have not been exposed for 11,700 years, that is, since the beginning of the Holocene. The study conducted by scientists from Boston College (USA) and recently published in the journal Science, shows not only this retreat, but also the increase in the rate at which these glaciers are melting. “Showing very significant evidence of the impacts that climate alterations are causing on ice masses.”
We continue with the same explanation: “The two isotopes from cosmic radiation are beryllium-10 (10Be) and carbon-14 (14C). Beryllium-10 is a radioactive isotope of beryllium formed mainly by the spallation of cosmic rays from oxygen. And carbon-14 or radiocarbon is a radioactive isotope of carbon with a nucleus of 6 protons and 8 neutrons, which decays producing beta radiation, with a half-life or half-life of 5,730 years. 14C is used for dating, being applicable to organic materials and some inorganic materials, but not to metals. The team of scientists from Boston College traveled to Colombia, Peru and Bolivia to make measurements of these two radioactive isotopes in the bedrock that was exposed, relatively recently, in front of four of the melting glaciers of the Andes.”
The results of these studies are alarming: “In the measurements obtained, it was observed that most of the samples analyzed had concentrations of the radioactive isotopes 10Be and 14C close to zero. This result suggests that these rocks were covered by ice throughout the Holocene period until the present day. Therefore, the glaciers adjacent to these rocks are probably smaller than they have ever been during the last 11,700 years of the Holocene. Scientists had already predicted that glaciers would melt or retreat as temperatures increased in the tropics. Rising temperatures are therefore the main cause of their decline, and the results of the study indicate that more of the world’s glaciers are likely to retreat, perhaps decades earlier than expected.
The report concludes that the tropics have already warmed beyond the maximum range reached at the beginning of the Holocene. And this suggests that we have already entered the Anthropocene, due to the significant global impact that human activities are having on terrestrial ecosystems.
