[@andywomack3414]

Excellent question. In general would depend on latitude. Near equator I speculate that it would be tropical rain-forest, with the emphasis on speculate. I don't know if there would be three wind-belts. Modern earth has easterly trades near equator, westerlies in mid latitudes and polar easterlies high latitudes. The boundary between the trades and westerlies is a broad area of descending air which creates the largest deserts. The boundary between the polar easterlies and mid-latitude westerlies creates up-lift, air mass fronts and mid-latitude cyclones, that stuff that's drawn on a weather map. I presume these wind belts would be narrowed with the least affected regions in areas with lots of ocean and closer to the equator.

[@muhammadikhwannurrosyidin8371]

Sundaland in the ice age, tropical seasonal snow can fall to an altitude of 3000 meters, at an altitude of 3200m-3600m tropical glaciers appear, so Mount Semeru, Rinjani and Kerinci with their current height can have glaciers Mount Kinabalu also has glaciers,The Leuser Mountains in Aceh often snow,Mount Rantemario in Sulawesi often snows, and Papua (Sahul mainland) has many ice fields.

The ice sheet over Canada expanded and contracted as seasons changed and in one unique location, they expanded and followed mountain valleys in to today's Washington State like snakes of ice which were miles thick and at a few locations they would expand in to each other and crashed in to one another over and over. This incredible force caused the ice sheets to dig down in to the earth creating today's Lake Chelan at almost 1500 feet deep. Also as the ice sheet over Canada grew and contracted it rounded off some of the lower elevation hills and mountains in the Cascades making them look much older than they really are.

"Not all glaciers are created equal" Damn, now we have to start a glacier-equality initiative. Pile up the jobs on us, man! Don't be shy! Jokes aside, this video is blatant proof of how much animations can improve our understanding of complex events. And make them hugely more interesting.

I am living near San Francisco, California. I read someplace that 20k BC (old school here), ice bergs and broken ice sheets were seen off northern Calif coast… that expanded out 80 miles… and local mountain high enough probably had snow for a good chunk of the year. Also, mike high glaciers carved out many valleys in the Sierra Nevada (Yosemite valley… at only 4500 feet).

Very interesting indeed. As an Australian, I've often wondered if the southern hemisphere was as affected by ice ages as the north but the earth south of the equator never rated a mention. Thank you for fighting my ignorance.

[@wanderer651952]

As a fellow Aussie, I can tell you that, IIRC, it's generally thought that, although Sahul didn't see the sort of ICE build-up that the Northern Hemisphere saw, what it did see was a great increase in RAINFALL. Think of the way that all that extra land affected ocean (inter-island seas) currents and wind patterns. Thus the MONSOONS. Thus, while the North had its ICE AGE, the South had its PLUVIAL AGE (Age of Rain). South America, with its Andean rain-shadow effect, perhaps less so.

[@mikenicholas9017]

More interesting to me is how much westward movement could have occurred. Why do we never ask this? Is Sahul the origin of the Vedas? Did westward migration from Sundah and Sahul, as seas rose again, push the Celtic migration?

[@CurmudgeonExtraordinaire]

From what I've gathered by speaking with people from Taiwan that I know, there are 3 main groups of people in Taiwan -- the Chinese who came over with Chang Kai Shek after the Chinese Civil War and who speak Mandarin, the Taiwanese who were there during the Japanese occupation (and who have only been there for around 300-400 years) and whose language is basically the same as the Chinese who live in the provinces right across the water from Taiwan, and the older population of aboriginal natives (called the "high mountain people" these days) who have been on the island for around 6000 years and whose origin is the islands to the southeast, like the Philippines or Indonesia. The Taiwanese complain about the Chinese coming over and taking control of everything, say that they were there first. The "high mountain people" are probably more like, "you are all a bunch of fuckin' illegal immigrants and you should go go back where you came from"...

[@NIDELLANEUM]

@@CurmudgeonExtraordinaire what happened to the Taiwanese who were there when the Qing dynasty conquered it after the Ming took refuge there?

[@CurmudgeonExtraordinaire]

@@NIDELLANEUM -- I was loosely grouping them with 2nd group in my post, even though I know they are different than the immigrants from Fujian and Guangjong. They all tended to get absorbed into the group that we typically think of as "Taiwanese", many of who still more favorably on Japan than on the Chinese who came over with Chang Kai Shek. In the end, it's always the victor that writes the history books...

[@WillN2Go1]

Terrific video. Thanks. Growing up in Michigan we learned a bit about glaciers in elementary school and then...that was it. The local terrain was mostly flat, lots of rounded rocks all over the place, occasionally a crew digging for a sewer line would uncover a chunk of ice left over from the Ice Age. I ran cross country in Cass Benton park which was a glacial moraine, drumlins or an esker. Glaciers were described as just huge bulldozers that dug out the Great Lakes and all the small kettle lakes.... an incomplete and not entirely accurate understanding. Over the years I learned a lot more, but never enough. Riding on a train in Scotland a couple of years ago going from Aberdeen to Glasgow, looking out the window, a bit bored, I sort of woke myself up with the question: the rest of the Highlands is all glaciated, so this must be too. And I started to see moraine, eskers, maybe drumlins? (You can see that my knowledge is still limited) The view got a lot more interesting. I think I was looking at an esker that had been eroded and cut through over the past 10,000 years. Seeing a hanging valley is always thrilling. I've seen them in Glacier National Park, Kamikochi, Japan, and In the Himalayas in Yunnan Province, China. That's when glaciers hit the Wow! button. This huge valley, that if this rickety bus blew a tire and went off the edge would take at least a minute to tumble to the bottom, was once so full of ice, it block another glacier in that hanging valley over there. On a hike later in the Scotland trip I complained about not seeing any 'scratches' then realized they were everywhere. (I'm the annoying over eager kid that enthusiastically never gets it quite right). A birdwatchers guide to glaciers video would be cool. Take the erratics in Central Park, how far down do they go? How much is fill and how much is bedrock? Why were the Great Lakes carved out and why aren't there similar huge lakes in other places?

[@sudiptaranjanpatra1876]

In my opinion you should study Geology, a lot of your questions would be answered. If don't want to go deep you can just study Geomorphology, Palaeontology and a bit Stratigraphy these are more than enough. I think there are authors how have written in simple terms form general folks. Anyways quench your thrist for knowledge.
