My friend Reynold like to post media publications about GW (just to get my goat or out of his altruistic need to save) which are often anecdotal or ifs or could bes. The most recent is the holes at the end of the world in Yamal. First I find it funny that over and over again anecdotal information frequently supports GW but never is allowed to impinge the idea. Second, Yamal is the location of the tree that ended the MWP (Medieval Warming Period) a single Larch in Yamal. But now, it has been hypothesized that methane ignited or a large enough bubble burst the ground. I have tried to calm peoples fears that it is most likely a very natural process that has been happening forever. Well the leading candidate now is a simple case of ice and water frequently result in the ice rising. The hydrostatic force rasies the land and then the ice melts leaving an apparent hole or donut around a lake. The seeming unique part about the Yamal holes are the sheer wall and depth. Akin to tropical limestone sinkholes. I await a good explanation. But I am betting on the pingo ice as the cause.
