Well then pressures are not all that equal if there are currents.
That true, when rising mantle meets the crust there is more upward pressure than there is where a downward flow begins. The up places are the spreading and down drafts would have to be someplace between. Perhaps that 'suction' is what lowered Eastern Canada's mountain ranges more than extra weathering because they are much older than the Rockies. The creation of Hudson's Bay (one rock that could liquidize the whole depth of the crust) was the event that caused their creation. The suction is only strong enough to put a 'dip' in the crust. At the current rate water would be flowing from the Arctic to Mexico through Ontario if it was not for the rise in elevation (a very small amount) and the continued spreading of rifts that are now underwater. The more they spread the more water they can hold. so there would be no new shallow sea as even the areas in the world at the depth of the Grand Banks would be dry land and the total distance across the Atlantic would be much wider, as would the Pacific and a few other places.

So Earth's velocity at the equator should be quite a bit faster than it used to be because as it grows, centrifugal force makes the planet flatter at the poles and widens the diameter at the equator. Actually, the velocity goes up and down.
Without the wobble it would be more than it is because the 'center' keeps changing slightly.
It (the relationship between rotation of crust and core) could also be quite different at the crust than it is at the core when the impact of the moon is considered. Before the impact a nice even spin. (balanced spinning top) with no wobble. The impact introduced the wobble we now have. From the impact til now an till the far future the wobble is changing. The influence of that change is out molten iron core. It remained close to the original balanced spin and the crust when for a wild ride. Slowly the core is stabilizing that wobble back to pre-strike conditions. Doing that creates friction and that creates heat and that creates expansion.
Oh I agree. I was just saying that Earth's parts do not move uniformly.
Creating friction and that is the heats source that drives an expanding crust, when that expansion stops shrinking happens and we end up looking like a dried round plum.
On a googolian scale that's below average.
If you are so smart why did you not publish their name the correct way? Googolian
I was also infomed that in some areas of 'talent' I am down to a single digit IQ. Those 'talents' I will keep to myself except for the typing one.
Latent heat certainly contributes to Earth's radiative balance. Evaporating and melting water involves lots of energy.
That would be mostly solar would it not?
Lots of ice traps a little extra heat and that causes a slight pressure build up and volcanoes start popping off. all that ash lands on the white ice making it dark which allows it to attract solar heat, During an ice age there sbouldn't be many clouds to stop the sun from being very bright in the sky.
