Earth's REAL Lost Continents

Miles beneath the ocean there are numerous sunken lands just waiting to be discovered. How did these lost lands form, and what would they be like today if they had been just a little higher up?

With all these landmasses raised from the ocean floor, and then a re-calculation of the worldwide sea levels, followed by an analysis of how they would have changed the ocean currents. Followed by a discussion on how it would have altered the climate on the continents, and thus influence the flora and fauna on them.

    Good idea, but what you suggest would have MASSIVE research requirements and expertise to figure out, and take a LONG time. Another thing to consider is, the effect of lowered sea level on atmospheric pressure, as the Earth's atmosphere "floats" on the ocean and landmasses, and lowering the ocean level lowers the atmosphere to fill in the void. For instance, if Earth's oceans were mostly gone, most of the atmosphere would run down into the abyssal plains-- the continents would be miles higher and thus in MUCH thinner air, so most of the continents would be vast frozen windswept plateaus much like Tibet and the Himalayas are today. Meanwhile the greater depth of air in the abyssal plains would create adiabatic heating, and most of the abyssal plains would be scorchingly hot deserts, much like the land around the Dead Sea is today. Read the discoveries they've made about the Mediterranean Sea when it went dry several times in the past; it would have been up to 140-150 degrees F on the former seafloor, making it a lifeless desert, with temperatures perhaps soaring to 170 degrees in extreme conditions. There would have been a few salt marshes and lakes, fed by the runoff of rivers flowing into the Mediterranean basin off the continents of Africa and Europe, stabilized as the evaporation rates matched the inflow of water from these rivers (not least the Nile, among others). The salt layers miles thick on the floor of the Mediterranean speak to this past, as scientists believe that the Mediterranean was closed and open to the Atlantic ocean a number of times over the past few million years, periodically changing it from sea to desert. Later! OL J R :)

    The submerged hawaiian island chain was always so interesting to me. It does an almost 90 degree turn to the north. Given that the mantle plume feeding the volcano is mostly stationary, this means something catastrophic must have happened to the pacific plate millions of years ago for it to stop moving one direction (north), and into a new direction (west). Some of my old professors said that the India plate crashing into the Asia plate did something to the plates around it. 🤷‍♂️

    Yes, but it is considered part of South America, not polynesia or anything like that. In fact, almost all of the unique animal species living there originally came from the continent before evolving into what they are today, so the archipielago's natural environment has a much deeper relationship with south america than to any other of the pacific islands...

    I have sometimes wondered how human beings found their way to Hawaii thousands of years ago. - The closest land to Hawaii is Kiribati, over 1000 miles away. That would be a very very long and dangerous journey in dugouts. It would require a lot of paddling and carrying enough food and water for even a few people seems unlikely. - Even if they had larger, sailing vessels (unlikely) it seems like an unlikely journey. - And you would have to get a decent sized population there for healthy procreation. (It would require a lot of trips back and forth and without a good means of navigating you could easily miss the islands on the way back) - But a line of small islands from Asia, or a fairly close continent, would explain it.

    @@wilson3664 Maybe. And it's easy to imagine explorers accidentally finding some of these islands. But even with a capable ship how can you find your way back and forth to bring more people and supplies without a compass, charts, and other ways to navigate? Perhaps they did have some skills to navigate we don't know about but a strip of land to walk on, land that takes you all the way or most of the way, to Hawaii makes sense. It makes the trip far easier, much faster, less dangerous, and moving a sizable population more practical.

    There was a big commercial and trading route between the Polynesian islands that went up to Hawaii and even the west coast of USA/Canada. Also, there are theories that some populations, during the last ice age, traveled from New Zealand and Australia to the coast of Chile and Peru. And, though a lot more recently, the vikings came to America from the north. Long ocean travel was hard, yes, but not impossible.

Viewing and understanding the stars as fixed celestial objects to be used as points of reference for terrestrial position to achieve navigation is not a feat limited to European colonizers. Ancient people were not ignorant to their surroundings. They were extremely intelligent and had the same capacity for rational thought and problem solving as you and I do.

So sadly, they don't really count, unlike more obvious and set in nature barriers, such as water-land barrier or elevation difference barrier.

    I think it's safe to say, America and future technologies will prevent the sinking of Florida. Florida houses too many cities and homes for it to just be forgotten and evacuated. However, it is fun to speculate what would it be like. I'm pretty sure if Florida were to sink, Miami would become the new "Atlantis" and would probably be some type of insane tourist diving spot.

Other than slowing global warming back down all together, the only option I see for Florida's inevitable doom is to build a quay/wall or at the very least those drainage canals around the coast like they have in Asia for tsunamis. This of course would cost a lot of money, probably more money than the US government will care to spend. Best case scenario is they rehouse all those people into newly built cities further inland but most likely they'll be left to their own devices and the real estate prices will skyrocket, fucking over more and more people.

    Great video, always wondered about some of these! Can't help but feel that a few might have remained undiscovered until the arrival of Europeans. The island off Brazil's coast would probably be reached by the Portuguese first as Amerindians weren't great seafarers. Highly doubt early settlement of Kerguelen occurs either as it's freezing cold and in the middle of nowhere. Austronesians could plausibly colonise Broken Ridge to the northeast, but even that's pretty remote too.

    I have long looked at the island chain of the Hawaiian hotspot but I never thought about Kamchatka rocks being a part of that hot spot. In looking at the makeup of the Eastern side of Kamchatka peninsula of Gabbro, serpentonite, and other ultramafic rocks it seems very reasonable that the headlands of the Hawaiian chain would have slammed into the Eastern side of Russia. If you compare these rocks with Rangelia and Salestia impacting into what is now Washington state it looks to be very similar. Excellent job!
