That is really cool and interesting.
I guess man-made global warming caused the sea level to rise over the last 10-12 thousand years?

On a less sarcastic note... Those fish look fat and happy, and I bet it is a great honey hole.


Hurricane Issac breached on both sides of DI's Katrina cut.
The beach was thickly littered with bits of waterlogged wood, the wood was said to have come from an recently uncovered underwater forest.
Guessing Issac really stirred it up and we know now where that forest is.

Huge amounts of waterlogged wood were present up and down the beach, and in the surf.
The wood was in the form of sticks and logs, not precut lumber. Pieces tossed in the water sank like rocks. The wood likely came from ancient forests buried by the sea long ago.
Thousands of dead crabs were mixed in with the wood bits.

An Atlantis park, no doubt.


You could also predict that the remaining water melting from the ice caps just could be enough to get another foot or two of sea rise; it has been a couple of inches recently. I'm just glad the next ice age won't happen before I die and strand Gulf Shores 30 miles inland!
