‘Nick From Home’ Livestream #10 - Baja BC Exotic Terranes

[@Mike-pr8hx]

Hello, Bijou. Love the kitties!

[@touchtoomuch1000]

I've been binge watching your hugefloods series. I've learned more about this planet in a the last 2 weeks than my entire life. You are a fantastic teacher and your passion is reflected in your lessons.

[@kennethjames4190]

Love your videos, Nick!

[@timteevin4517]

Paying attention to a cat is not a waste of time. Good looking critter.

[@emboudreau617]

Just came across your podcasts and KZbin videos and it's been a huge asset to me. I'm a grad student at UMass Lowell working on sedimentary rock from Gold Beach in SW Oregon that record evidence supporting the Baja-Bc hypothesis. So excited to continue listening! 😁

[@barneymiller6204]

Any man who loves his cat is O.K. with me!! He's beautiful!

[@synthwavedirtbag]

revisiting this lecture after learning more about the basin and range. could be FUN!

[@Mike-pr8hx]

I wish I would have found these clips at the beginning of lockdown. Better late than never. :) I took three quarter of Geology in college which were some of my favorite classes yet I ended up an accountant. Go figure. I think my professor's name was Mrs. Dominic.

[@markt113]

"I can see Mexico from my house". Great lecture, thanks!!!

[@dianespears6057]

Thank you so much, Nick, for these videos and for your cheerful presentation of subject matter and the circumstances around these special presentations. You are absolutely the greatest. P.S. Love the cat.

Regarding the East Pacific Rise you have to remember that the Pacific Plate was way out in the ocean during Baja-BC times. You had the Kula Plate to the north and the Farallon Plate to the south of this spreading ridge he's described. That spreading ridge ran between two triple junctions. The eastern triple junction was the spreading ridge meeting the transform faults marking the boundary between the North American Plate and the Kula Plate to the north of the triple junction and the Farallon Plate to the south of the triple junction. Sometimes subduction zones formed instead of transform faults and it's a complicated story. What about the triple junction at the other end of the spreading ridge between the Farallon and Kula plates? That is where the Pacific Plate enters the picture. That western triple junction was between oceanic spreading ridges. The East Pacific Rise is the spreading ridge between the Pacific and Farallon Plates. The spreading ridge between the Pacific and Kula Plates is long gone. It got subducted up at Alaska 40 million years ago, changing the motion of the Farallon Plate, hence the creation of the subduction zone off the west coast which started the Cascades. Most of the East Pacific Rise is gone in the north. Only the bit off Cascadia is still around with the Gorda and Juan de Fuca microplates. Further south it's still way out to sea and there's the whole Cocos Plate which is the largest remaining piece of the Farallon Plate to subduct beneath South America before the spreading ridge disappears down south.

I watched the "Virtual OMSI Science Pub: Geology of the Columbia Gorge". Now I'm even more appreciative of Nick's livestreams. He is a really engaging teacher. He creates a story and fills it with substance. I'm hooked.

[@treeherder7712]

Hey Nick. I just discovered your channel. I live a little east of you in a little town called Harrington. I'd love to listen and learn if you're ever in the area.thanks for knowledge.

[@mgould100]

Watching from New Braunfels, Texas

[@francesdielmann3278]

Excited for the earlier live feed this weekend. I'm happy to watch replays the next morning, but it will be nice to be able to join in live now and then. Thanks from Germany!

[@vanessaengelbrecht4212]

Watching from Cape Town South Africa :)

[@tamaraschmidt8160]

Loved it! Even the “Radio” portion of the show!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thanks! It’s our favorite part of the day! See you tomorrow night.

[@mattcauthers1758]

Another great video Nick! Looking forward to Tuesday night

[@1234j]

Great, again! And am so looking forward to watching live next weekend from UK. It's no good watching you live-streaming 6 p.m. your time, 3 a.m. here, because your talks are the opposite of a cure for insomnia, ho ho.

[@VisualAFMedia]

I appreciate this. Thanks, Nick.

[@markcurtis7550]

I've only gotten 1 notification since you've started but in my free time I tune in. Thank you for the entertainment and education

[@wildedibles819]

More of this is making sense going back thanks

[@DanFarrar]

Great job Nick. No worries on the video at tail end. You are killing it. Wonderful dude

[@MrFmiller]

Great presentations. I’ve recommended your site to several people. If they recommend it to several people each and so on, you’ll spread faster than the scourge.

[@zachkransdorf1558]

I love your work! You've seriously reignited my interest in science in these hard times. Living in new mexico i have my own disneyworld of geology 😂 I love this leacture but isn't an important part of this exotic terrain story the formation of the rocky mountains!

[@francesdielmann3278]

I get your reminder on Facebook. On the next morning I click there and watch the replay.

[@stever2583]

Is there an argument to the magnetite orientation for the detractors of Baja BC?

[@ItsPaigeKandt]

So is the portion of California that is west of the SA fault part of another continent that the pacific plate picked up, or is it just a rise in elevation from that plate? If so, how did that part of the plate form and rise up?

[@caseyker1]

I get a notification in my mailbox that says you are live now. It stays there until I can watch it (at work when you’re live) I can see the replay immediately as soon as I click on the notification.

[@SCW1060]

I know when you are on when my rocks on my desk start to vibrate LOL

[@GreggoMusicChannel]

NICK, YOU WONDERED IF THE REPLAY WAS AVAILABLE AS SOON AS THE LIVE STREAM ENDED. IT IS;. IT TOOK A FEW MINUTES FOR THIS COMMENT OPTION TO SHOW UP. BUT I COULD SEE THE REPLAY IMMEDIATELY. THANKS FOR WHAT YOU DO! Greg in TN

[@geoffgeorges]

Mexico called and they want Mt. Stuart back.

[@sticksstones8498]

We just look up Nick Zentner. God sets up the impeccable timing. His is to credit

[@michael-oo7nf]

i watch the recording cause i cant seem to get your live stream,but still enjoy your recording.

[@iviewthetube]

It is fun to play with a vertical compass.

[@tuzonthume]

6:50 didn't notice this in my 'feed' until 5/26/2020. i'm a casual subscriber though. I shun notifications.

[@avonellehamilton8500]

We can get right there.

[@Roarmeister2]

Snort... I'm 5 weeks behind on this series. I've got some catching up to do!

[@tuzonthume]

1:00:00.My Father's generation told me it was all volcanic. Came out of the ocean in a general uplift after primordial iceage.

[@marynelson3634]

Sorry didn't mean to be flippant! Try to find a teenager in your neighborhood to help! Pay him by feeding him maybe. Good luck! Love watching you from San Diego. Mary

[@allenschmidt4771]

Lol, damn muffler boy... Best series ever!

[@tuzonthume]

How could we know for certain where the equator or poles were in relationship to this continent 1100mya?

[@connieboleneus5362]

Hi Nick, WHERE DID YOU GO THIS WEEKEND? From Spokane, I had previously bookmarked your talks and was not able to find you either Saturday AND Sunday night. That link did not work. We were evidently on the wrong stream. I searched the Live Stream Channel, Saturdays Lecture Supercontinents did not show up until Sunday afternoon. I manually went to your You Tube Channel both Saturday and Sunday and you were nowhere to be found. It is now 8:59 PM Sunday and I can find the Saturday replay. I am subscribed to the channel. I never received an announcement. By searching, I did find the announcement but it was not until 6:56 pm. Bottom line, Nick From Home does not show up until the next day-for me. Saturday and Sunday, you were not at the same place (I bookmarked) the previous talks 1-9. ??? We will keep trying----

[@coreysue3451]

@Connie Boleneus Did you get YT mad at you? lol I shouldn't joke...several areas are having the same problem. Check with your provider to see if there are specific issues.

[@dannymccarty6680]

There’s a delay in KZbin (I’m a YT subscriber) streaming circuits, at least at my end of the pipe in San Antonio. Sunday, 3/29/20, at 8PM CST no notification received but I’m camped out on YT and your live presentation ain’t in sight. Gave up after 20 minutes. Can’t say if and when YT finally got around to streaming you but at 10AM Monday I found 2 notifications and a link. NOT your fault. Go figure. Nevertheless, you did a fine job.

[@caseyker1]

I have trouble with computer stuff... I call myself tech-lexic! 😁

[@mgould100]

Usually watch, as today episode #10, 24 to 48 hours later

[@withwingswefly2455]

DITTO, COULD HIT REPLAY AND IT BEGAN IMMEDIATELY, COMMENTS A FEW MINUTES LATER. THANKS AND CHEERS TO YOU AND FAMILY!

[@geezzzwdf]

Yes those kind of "set Reminder" things help But I Don,'t remember needing them. I do need them for NASA space Launches that are weeks or months in advance

[@marynelson3634]

I type in 'Nick at home' livestream and # number.

[@stinkywizzleteats662]

apparently, muffler shops are not essential business right now.

[@Slowmodem1]

Muffler boy! That will follow him forever! :)

[@cfarr]

Reminds me of how Santa Barbara used to be part of San Diego but was ripped off and deposited north of LA

[@mrpieceofwork]

I love how the chat starts out with a discussion about making alcohol...

[@marynelson3634]

Check amazon for a book on how to livestream.

[@wildedibles819]

Ok why do we find dinasoar bones in Canada west coast then? Well not coast in land in Alberta bad lands and in northern British Columbia i was in Tumbler ridge 15 years ago and they were all on the dinasoar bones discoveries and foot prints Could this be glacier erosion or water erosion? That uncovered these? I used to have a picture of my son at y months old sitting in the dinasoar foot print :) three toed maybe 4 toe cus one was behind like a chicken foot but as big as a 6 month old baby butt lol I think there was lots of fossils way up north compared to bones to the south in Alberta Up north we were in the old part of the rockies wore down, mostly mountain full of coal So they probably get wore down more easily And melt water and glacier movement could expose more older stuff?? I think they had ginko leaves and i seen fern leaf fossils in the woods it was pretty big fern parts compared to what is around today and there was fossils of coral in the woods mountain area too Stone coral hiking trail Oh maybe we don't have German chocolate cake? :( I like chocolate lol Thanks Evelyn:)

[@EMarcisz32]

might have something to do with the fact that Alberta and part of north-east BC (east side of Rockies) is on NA plate 🙂

[@johnbrady3279]

Willow Alaska

[@hertzer2000]

Howdy, Nick! Just wondering which of the erratics can a man live under until this whole covid thing blows over? Like, the best one in your opinion. lol Be safe.

[@jamesakister1073]

Redding ca

[@EMarcisz32]

all that I read about the terranes that added to NA and created BC (I'm from BC:), presents them as offshore island arcs... none of the rather recent books (last 5-10-15y) that I read mentioned Baja-BC theory.... those are all (western) Canadian books.... does Canadian geology educators are in opposition to the Baja-BC theory? Hmmm....

[@julianm3713]

I personally turn off all my notifications.

[@allencolvin656]

Real kneise schist...lol for all of us with juvinile humor...lol

[@wildedibles819]

Lol finger off the camrea lol

[@sticksstones8498]

Good to see you. I have an off the topic question... In your tours and travels have you ever seen a dragon/pterodactyl like creature? I am witness along with a few unmentionable others. Salmon Idaho/Missoula Montana area. There is a lair out there.

[@catherineclark6284]

I wpould not call them "cartoons." I would call them illustrations. Cartoons has a much different connotation.
