30 billion tons in a century! The Mariana Trench did not stop "drinking water", and the sea level rose instead of falling?

Mariana Trench didn't stop 'drinking water'

Introduction: The earth is a member of the solar system, and the solar system is a small part of the universe. The earth is very small in the universe, but the earth is the only planet known to human beings that has living organisms. Humans have lived on the earth for tens of thousands of years, and at the same time have changed various environments on the earth, but now human beings are still in an unknown state of the earth, and more understanding of the earth is only shown by data. things are still relatively small.

Earth is a mysterious sphere and home to many creatures other than humans. Humans basically live on land, but the land on the earth only occupies 29.2% of the earth's surface area, which is still very small compared to the ocean. Nowadays, the technology of human beings is constantly improving, and the destruction of the earth by human beings is also intensifying. Therefore, in order to survive, human beings have been looking for another planet suitable for human survival from a long time ago.

In fact, human beings are looking for other planets suitable for survival for the continuation of life, but human beings still do not really understand the earth, and many things that happen on the earth are unknown, including buildings built by humans or The cultural relics below also include various events generated by nature, such as the Mariana Trench drinking event.

Drink 30 billion tons in a hundred years? Mariana Trench never stopped "drinking water"? Sea level keeps rising

Located in the Pacific Ocean, the Mariana Trench is the deepest trench known to humans at this stage. On November 10, 2020, my country's "Struggle" also dived to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, with a bottom depth of 10,909 meters. Although the depth of human diving has reached the conditions for studying the Mariana Trench, the water pressure of the Mariana Trench is high, the temperature is low, and it is completely dark, so humans still need to make a lot of efforts to understand the Mariana Trench.

In recent years, scientists have found that the earth is "drinking water" like crazy, and the part of drinking water is the Mariana Trench. Many people may think that this is a rumor, but after the demonstration of scientists, it is found that the Mariana Trench is not only drinking water, but also that the drinking water is huge and continuous. According to the existing data, we can know that there is plate movement in the Mariana Trench, so the water drinking event is also caused by plate movement.

However, according to scientists' calculations, the Mariana Trench has a huge amount of water to drink. Basically, a subduction zone will bring 30 billion tons of water into the mantle every 100 years. Because the Mariana Trench drinking event has lasted for many years, scientists now have no way of knowing how much water is hidden in the mantle. And scientists don't know whether the water that entered the mantle was involved in Earth's circulation or was stored.

There are many doubts about the Mariana Trench drinking event, but in the face of the disappearance of a large amount of seawater, many people think that the sea level will drop, but now the sea level has not only not dropped, but is now in a perennial rising stage. Therefore, from this analysis, the "Earth drinking water" event will also draw the conclusion that although the earth has been "drinking water", the water entering the mantle will be combined with the earth's circulation, so the incoming seawater is basically discharged. .

The sea water is basically in a state of circulation, so the sea level itself does not change. With the intensification of global warming, many ice layers and glaciers on the earth have begun to melt, mainly in the Arctic and Antarctic. When these solid waters gradually melt, the sea level will also rise year by year. While this claim is speculative, it is also more in line with science.

Conclusion:

In fact, the reason for "the earth drinks water" may not be important, because according to this event, we have already seen problems such as sea level rise caused by global warming. Therefore, for the better survival of human beings, it is very important to protect the environment and slow down global warming. And this process requires everyone to act together
