Regarding the movement of the arc west you should check out recent Nick Zentner's interview with Vic Camp which puts together the various stages of the Yellowstone hotspot passing through the ancient cascades and eventually initiating slab rollback through the accumulation of hot buoyant material lifting the Farallon plate upwards in an uplift bulge between 30 to 20ish Ma. This then subsequently failed 17 Ma detaching the remaining slab now henceforth known as the Juan de Fuca plate causing its angle to steepen pushing the cascade range trench ward.

2:30 Would you be willing to do a video that goes into detail about the actual scale of plate subduction and magmatic intrusions? I'm curious how deep the subducting crust falls before being effectively indistinguishable from the surrounding mantle.
@Dragrath1
14 сағат бұрын
This is a very complicated topic and active area of study, it seems to depend on a lot of factors most slabs based on Seismic tomography get stuck at the mantle transition zone as the lower mantle is too dense to penetrate but some do penetrate particularly after remineralizing into denser phases of rock and thus have sank down all the way to the core mantle boundary. There is chemical evidence that at least some mantle plumes are erupting material derived from ancient former ocean crust. It is important to note that while the upper mantle is fairly well mixed the lower mantle is anything but being extremely complicated and there is evidence that it has only started to mix with the upper bulk planet in the last 2 billion years or so.

The curve goes straight down at about 400 kilometers inland. So there are some volcanos within 400 kilometers of the coast.
I watch videos of a geology prof from Central Washington Univ, Nick Zentner, and he said how the modern-day Mt Rainier grew up from the remains of an earlier volcano. After you mentioned the older, now eroded Western Cascades, I got thinking about that. Can you tell us more? I love Mt Rainier and would love to know her pre-history. And maybe something on Beacon Rock, on the Columbia River? It's apparently 848 feet high!

The video is a super snapshot of what is really (or really was) happening in this region of the Oregon (and greater WA-OR-CA) region. Everybody is shown a map of the ancient Laramidia sub-continent, with the Western Inner Sea between the eastern sub-continent of ancient Appalachia. It is always depicted as a N-S alignment much like our current North America. This is absolutely wrong ! In the ancient past the proto-shoreline against what we note as the Rocky Mountains-Sierra Nevadas was NOT N-S but W-E and was down at the equator. There are various reasons why this is so. Especially the China/Asia/NE Australia ancient ginkgo and coast cedar trees showing that eastern WA Vantage Point of the WA State Ginkgo fossil park and that of the eastern OR John Day Fossil beds containing these fossil trees, can only have come when China/Asia/Australia were in contact with this portion (of now) Pacific Northwest proto-shoreline of the Rockies. As such, Laramidia was a massively long equatorial island with its Rocky Mountains-Sierra Nevadas evolving at the equator. Only after the period of the (said) K-T boundary of the Chicxulub (Yucatan, Gulf of Mexico 6-mile diameter asteroid impact) of 60-55 MYA, ... and the HUGE Farallon plate started sliding under the Laramidia sub-continent, did North America start rotating in a clockwise direction to its present N-S alignment. Laramidia was W-E, and such geological statements of the ancient Siletzia island eventually "landed" at the WA/OR/N CA proto-shoreline and became the current shoreline, only holds applicable if Siletzia as an island was even further south and in a W-E alignment with the equatorial Laramidia, ... and the further connections of the other equatorial island landmasses of the San Francisco fault zone, and the San Andreas fault zone !!!! The Rocky Mountains evolved in the 80-55 MYA period of the Cretaceous period (147-60 MYA). Only with the clockwise rotation and landing of these 3 massive island landmasses onto the protoshoreline of Laramidia, do we have our current N-S Laramidia, Rocky Mountains, the ancient eroded away Cascade mountains of the ancient period, and the currently evolved Cascade mountains of the last 7-5 MYA, when the Farallon plate cracked, and started subducting under the current North American continent. The original Laramidia is called a volcanic arc, as well as that of the Siletzia landmass, ... and those portions of scrunched and folded coastal mountains, like the ancient Cascades of Siletzia, and the San Francisco and San Andreas island arc coastal mountains. All of these happened in these last times, when the Farallon subducted, and the Pacific plate pushed north and started splitting the Farallon plate into a western and eastern portion, as the Pacific plate further pushed up the Rockies into higher elevation and further erosion of sedimentation onto the western and eastern slopes. There is so much more complexity and backstory to the whole exotic terranes of the West Coast of North America, that is not properly told to the common public, let alone to geological students !!! Even the subject of the American Trench, north of the W-E aligned Laramidia at the equator, was a massive planetary plate tectonics fault zone of massive depth and length that became the Western Inner Seaway. Its (also) clockwise rotation, and eventual sedimentation by the Rocky Mountains eastern slopes erosion and sedimentation create further eastern shoreline creep into the trench filling it up for 253 Million years. Then the Farallon plate came underneath, cut off the deep trench, and uplifted the West Coast, Rockies (not the Sierra Nevadas), and the northern states, dumping out the sea waters down the current Missouri-Mississippi watershed into the Gulf of Mexico. Only later, during the 150,000 - 12,000 years ago glacial periods did meltwater wash out the Sea way salts, leaving the watershed basin running with freshwater creeks, streams, and rivers, and freshwater-filled Midwest aquifers. When you see exotic terranes of WA and OR, ... batholiths, ancient volcanoes, cinder cones, plutonic basalts, andesites, or granites, there is more to WA, OR, and N CA that is recognized or admitted by geologists.

It is his real voice - just look at the Icelandic videos from the last couple of weeks where he shows himself on camera if you have any doubts. And the reason for the slightly ideosyncratic delivery is that he is autistic (as he explained in the intro to an Icelandic drone video back in April). So extra kudos to him for making these videos and exposing himself to ill-informed comments like yours.
