Im not an expert, and I dont play one on TV.
I'm not an expert and my VCR blinks. ;-)
Some time ago I posted a speculation that we wouldn't have another ice age because we now have a Bering Strait to allow some circulation. Looks like the same general idea.
Well, I can’t even get my satellite dish box to turn on, so you are doing better than me right now.
I don’t think the Bering Straight is big enough. My recollection was about the time of Pangea, when all of the continents were clustered together around the equator, the water moved freely around.
