Ocean Volume Displacement Factors

1st. Factor. (See Fig. 6 & 7. ) The impact’s force was absorbed by the earth and created the Great Lakes Basin, a 300 mile (482 Km.) dent with craters. The preliminary fast seismic P waves traveled along a straight line tangent to the earth’s core. These waves were influenced by the core’s spherical contour in shaping the antipode into a crescent formation of the Himalayan Mountain ranges. The entire regions around the Himalayan formations are the antipode of the Great Lakes impact forces. The results of these effects demonstrate the enormous magnitude of kinetic energy that was released by the explosion impact and magnified at the antipode side. The secondary slower S waves were manifest in the uplifting of the 40,000 miles (64,360 Km.) of ocean ridges. These slower waves traveled along this distance in a domino effect radiating from the impact point around both sides of earth’s core (See Fig. 10b. ) and meeting in the Indian Ocean. The uplifted ridges (fountains of the great deep - Gen. 7:11) displaced a large portion of the ocean volume.
Figure 7
This displacement was the first cause of the flood as it inundated all areas of the continental shelf. The long slowest seismic waves confined to the crust further initiated uplift of the mountains on land and ocean ridges. The ocean water's displacement value of the ridges is estimated at 2400 ft. or 731 M. ( See Fig. 8. )

2nd Factor. ( See Fig. 8. ) The massive world wide precipitation (sluices of heaven were opened - Gen. 7:11 ) was started by dust clouds that were formed by the meteorite impacts and volcanic eruptions activated by the immediate seismic upheavals. The earth was shifted from a 360 to a 366 day orbit that caused sudden cold temperature changes in the atmosphere resulting in massive precipitation, especially at the north and south gyrating poles. This rain was a major factor in establishing glaciers, vast erosion, and thus ocean water's displacement.

3rd Factor. ( See Fig. 8 & 9 ) An average rate of 3/4 inch per minute of continuously generated rapid freezing rain accumulated as a mass of glacial ice around the gyrating circumference of the north and south poles. In the north, most of the glaciers were formed on the continents - only about 30% of the total ice displacement was formed in the Atlantic Ocean. However, about 85% of the Antarctic glaciers were formed in the ocean where most of the glacial displacement occurred. The vast accumulation and weight of the ice caused these glaciers to rest on the surrounding ocean floor. The expansion of the ice itself added to the ocean water's displacement. The total value of this displacement is estimated at 1720 ft. or 524 M.
4th Factor. ( See Fig. 8. ) As the ocean levels increased, the mass of the continents was an important factor in the displacement of the ocean volume. The value of this displacement is estimated at 820 ft. or 250 M.
5th Factor. ( See Fig. 8. ) The continuous and heavy rain caused massive soil, sandstone, and limestone erosion especially at higher elevations where these effects were prolonged. This kind of erosion is seen throughout the high plateaus of the Rocky Mountains as well as other parts of the world. Extensive areas of soft sandstone and limestone strata were literally carried off by the massive downpour erosion, which resulted in expanding the flood waters volume. This precipitation caused the formations of mesas, buttes, spires and turrets as can be seen today in the mountainous regions of the western United States and other similar terrain’s in the world. The eroded soils contributed a displacement value that is estimated at 60 ft. or 18 M.
The above five factor values of displacement should be considered as variables because the sequences of the flood were highly unstable; however, the estimated value of 4650 ft. (1417 M. ) for the deluge flood elevation is conservatively realistic with the existing high elevations of the terraces made by the receding water levels.
Figure 9, The explosion impact area is shown on the North Pole map(Fig. 9). Radiating from this location are red arrow lines that designate the directions of the impact’s seismic force waves. The primary seismic force can be seen in line with the Himalayan Mountains. The secondary seismic waves spread throughout the earth activating mountain and ocean ridge uplift, as well as, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions throughout the world. Today, most of these activities can be traced back to the explosion impact of the Great Lakes region. These effects also caused pressures within the earth’s crust that created thermal expansion with results of crust overlap and folding. It should also be noted, that during the first revolutions of the gyrating north pole axis, the first extinction of mammoth, mastodon, saber tooth tiger, and other animals occurred at this time in Siberia and Alaska. Due to the earth’s shift into a colder orbit, the cold and warm atmosphere confrontations caused continuous downpour of freezing rain. A phenomenally rapid buildup of solid ice advanced with great heights and vast areas every day for at least 70 days (See Fig. 8 ). The advances of the of the glacial ice formations were concentrated at the circumferences of the gyrations as indicated on the north and south pole maps. The stabilization of the gyrations occurred in a short period of time and with this change the atmosphere took on a more stable climate. Snow now began to accumulate in the basins of the glacial rings and melting began with lowering sea levels. The earth stabilized its orbit to the present 365 1/4 days.
