Question about oxygen levels

We Never Know

No Slack
At the end of the last Ice Age, the mountains were covered with water in the form of large glacial lakes caused by melting glaciers. (Lake Missoula is the one that was in my area of the earth. When the ice dam floodgates were breached, it let loose a deluge that left huge scars over vast areas of land that can be seen today.)

We are still coming out of the last ice age to my underdtanding....

"Like all the others, the most recent ice age brought a series of glacial advances and retreats. In fact, we are technically still in an ice age. We’re just living out our lives during an interglacial."

What's the coldest the Earth's ever been?.

I agree. We are in an interglacial period. At the beginning of this interglacial period, we had Noah. Today we have NOAA. :p

At the top of Mount Everest, over 29,000 feet there is only ⅓ of the oxygen available there as there is at sea level.
If the normal sea level rose by 20,000 feet and the new sea level is 20,000 feet higher than what it is now, what would happen to the oxygen level?
Would the oxygen levels be increased at higher altitudes due to the higher sea level?
Why not 30,000, like when the flood covered the whole earth? IMHO, it would not make much difference, only some. Atmosphere extends to 100 miles above the earth. It will be pushed upwards.

However, sea levels cannot rise that much. There is not enough water for that (unless the Abrahamic God decides to send a second flood). In that case, let God forwarn at least one Christian (like he did the last time, forewarning Noah), so that he can stock supplies and build a suitable boat (two of each kind). Noah did a fine job with his ark.

"that we can stock supplies and build boats."

That's the point. The arguement is with that much water you wouldn't survive because of the pressure.

You are clearly wrong when you think that two people that agree with each other disagree.

Instead of being abusive when you are obviously wrong why don't you ask for help? If you asked politely instead of being rude when you were politely correct then people would gladly help you. When you act as if someone attacked you when they did not then you will not be happy with how others treat you in return.

This is an easy idea to understand. You can understand it if you try. There are no arcane math secrets involved.

There it is in 100% form.
You're like a mouse being offered cheese..you can't resist lmao

I disagree with that. I said it will only make a small difference in atmospheric pressure, not enough to harm living beings (Vegetation or animals including humans). Atmosphere will still have 95 miles to fill up. 30,000 is just about 5 miles.

Do you understand that if that water was in the air that would change the pressure?

Was it all from the air?

Genesis 7:11 water rose from the fountains of the great deep

Now I know you will tell me I am wrong but won't tell me how I am wrong unless I ask nicely and admit I am wrong. Then you will offer to teach me if I beg you lmao

Oh I did. Nice of you to say I didn't.

But let me guess, your next post will be telling me how in your opinion I'm wrong, how I misunderstood the post, and you will teach me about my errors only if I admit I am wrong. Lmmfo

Read it again...

It appears you are wrong, since I was indeed refuting the claim that the air pressure would reduce.

Think of it like this...

In this first image we can see a fellow standing at sea level. There is a certain amount of atmosphere above him. It is the weight of this atmosphere pressing down that causes the atmospheric pressure. Above the atmosphere, we can see space, extending out for lightyears.

Now, let's raise the sea level. The water will rise, and the person will have to rise as well if he doesn't want to drown. Now you can see that the sea level has risen, and so has he. Because of all this extra water, the atmosphere has been pushed up. But the important thing to notice is that the atmosphere is the same thickness as it was before. There is still the same amount of atmosphere above him pushing down, and so the atmospheric pressure remains the same.

So since there is the same amount of atmosphere above the person in both cases, the atmospheric pressure is the same in both cases. There is no reduction in air pressure.

There it is again lol. Isn't it about time for you to tell me how in your opinion I'm wrong, how I misunderstood the post, and you will teach me about my errors only if I admit I am wrong?

You are wrong, and you did misunderstand the post.

If the sea level rose, the atmosphere would be shifted up, but the pressure will not increase or decrease by any significant amount.

And no increase if I understand what you are saying

Exactly! With sea level.rise, the above air would'nt crush whats below it.
