The of the geode as you go from our slum to Russia is such that a goose or something setting on the water for Augustus will be about a metre further away from the center of the earth than it's brother goes up but. Dorian whatever that particular Lochness factoid had me scratching my head for quite some time but it's intriguing nuggets like that which means for the next 30 minutes I want you to stop thinking of Loch Ness is the home to myth and legend and picture instead of frankly breathtaking and brilliant experimental tank. But before we dive on in both literally and metaphorically we need to go back to the beginning we need to go back to about 400000000000 years ago when there was a major fall through here that came straight across Scotland and right Butler is Professor of tectonics at the University of Aberdeen You can trace it obviously south from Inverness down the line of the great land you can pick up hints of it just click in the corner and then off into the sea of Hebrides which you can see on land but you can also see in visible data offshore it goes north and probably connects up with a thing called the walls boundary falls in Shetland and potential goes always far Spitzbergen basically what's happened is that in more much more recent times the shattered rock that that formed on the fault falls form with repeated earthquakes every time there's a great you break some rock and it would have seen at least thousands of earthquakes which build up a big area shatter so that when the gases came through here in the in the last 1000000 years or so then they simply they just counted out the shattered rock in between and left the glen with a loss in it and this is sitting in the bottom of that and one of the more scoops out bits and in terms of rock What are we talking about. Now that's that's also been here yeah Has he brought his 2. So right here yeah it's so crucial. If you had 3 seconds so yeah if we come up to this and we've got this this pink rocket if you look at it it's it's got it's pink and white little grains I guess they're about right and what those 3 or 4 millimeters across with a speckled the texture and this is it these days to minerals of course and feldspar there's another mineral too in there as well which are weathering out in the in the gaps in the rock it's really quite smooth to touch it is and that's that's thanks to the grasses that smooth it all off but the texture inside this is a granite or granite type of rock it was intrude into the earth's crust 420 ish 1000000 years ago it's a thing called the new A grand it's rather rather strangely it's new because it there's a loss things happen to this part of the crust during the Caledonian mountain building which forms the bedrock geology around here and the neat thing about this is that there are similar ground it's on the other side of the of the great the in this faults and that runs across and right down opposite strontium. Under kilometers. Set along the line of this long great line fault as a offset that immediately makes me think you've got sliding Are we talking about a slight This recognized by people making some of the earliest geological maps or this part the highlands in the in the 1920 S. And thirty's a guy called Bill Kennedy recognized that there were these 2 pieces of granite where once one and had been offsets can you realize that this this for a good huge displacement of 100 kilometers to do it and what's more it was a sideways displacement at the time most geologists were thought that if you had faults the rocks had moved up and down on the fall so once I moved up and down not which limits the sort of amount of movement you can get without bringing really deeper rocks in the surface and what Kennedy recognized was this big lateral movement at a time well before ideas like plate tectonics and all the mobility that we're happy about that the Earth shows through. From George to time he was able to demonstrate these really big displacements because of a revolution at the time and gradually got the community ready to accept the ideas of mobility of the Earth's so are not nest lab has made significant contributions to our understanding of the way the very fabric of our planet works pop that discovery about the fault line in your memory bank because like many aspects of Loch Ness there's a twist in the tale which we're going to come back to. Studying this monster law from above is one thing getting to its underbelly requires some serious innovation . The suction anchors things break drama shaped things when we have a lot better but with a war for out. Training. A way into the settlement provide Anchorage Adrian Shine is a naturalist who heads up the Loch Ness project which aims to spread the word about the science of the law he spent most of the last 45 years collaborating with various scientists facilitating their research look this is our premier Lake. It's full line lake and it is long and straight in line with the prevailing wind which means this very windy place and it's deep has to over 200 meters deep you could submerge the London. In McMANUS So if you picture what it's like during a piece of string from the top of the rooms of the street pulling up. To some pool you'll see why it is quite a difficult place to contemplate something difficult might be but difficult also means for a scientist entering exciting unexplored territory. We're going to drop it that we're heading south west towards your car and this is the world up here and when you think about the world it's underneath that's a fascinating thing most times we see lakes and moss and we see reflections on what we're seeing is what's above the law. We don't know what's underneath those logs that's for me that's what's exciting America 1st for me population geneticist professor and director in the rivers in Los Institute in Inverness college in the university pardons of islands. Well it's true we care in the know about the. Mess we have a very patchy account and it's mostly historical We really don't have a complete picture of the biological community that's in here and given the size of the law it's probably quite a complex one but at the same time it's not a particularly abundant one because the productivity of the loft is so low what we're doing is we're applying the latest molecular genomic techniques to understand the biodiversity because a lot of the biodiversity even if you bring it up it isn't obvious so you can't just say it will Yeah that's different than that what you see if you look very carefully are subtle differences in the. The difference is in the physiology for example the ability to live at. 20250 meters. As opposed to living on the surface or living in a condition versus conditions morphologically the shape and things may be very similar. Particularly difficult to study so we're just starting our studies there but we've looked at other lakes and everybody assumes that all are the same. But in fact there's quite a variety of forms of we discovered in one lake on the. In the take. In which when we looked at it genetically we actually found 4 different distinct forms of. And these have evolved since the glaciers left that area 10000 years ago and is. Present in the bits of study that we've done on other lakes are suggesting that there are many lakes in Scotland that have this kind of biodiversity and this is a challenging environment you're not going to be just scooping up different. To the impact it's studying. Well actually sampling the biodiversity given the densities of organisms are fairly low and they can be very seasonal in their abundance and where they are in the lake is the biggest challenge the other way where you can get certain types of insight is. The water and in the water. You can then add D.N.A. Interrogate it using molecular genomic and you can see the different species that might be there and having. A database where you connected a particular form that you know from visually and you know the D.N.A. From that you can then tell whether that's present however it becomes slightly more problematic when you're dealing with forms that you've never seen before. So like I have no reference Yeah absolutely so then you basically look at your database and you say my daughter got a completely different kind of D.N.A. There it's a D.N.A. That's similar to these but it's different enough that it must be a different species this only works to a point when you're dealing with species that are very different when you're dealing with the example that I gave you of these different forms of troat and if you sound the D.N.A. In the water you cannot tell the difference between those forms because the differences are more subtle and you have to get the right piece of D.N.A. And to give you an idea of the complexity of that Atlantic salmon which I've done most of my work on they have a genome which is twice as big as the human genome. So we have 3 and a half 1000000000 days players in our genome plus or minus a few $100000000000.00 and Atlantic salmon have $7000000000.00 plus or minus a few hundreds of millions of base pairs and so when you're looking within that often the differences between species are in very small parts of the genome and you have to know where those parts are so it's a chicken and egg thing and it's a needle in the haystack OK so you might be able to distinguish between very similar species using those D.N.A. Rich water samples Erik's gathering but could you use that method to potentially dig into the historic record of life in the last stick around because we'll come back to that one this is brainwaves on B.B.C. Radio Scotland where we're exploring some of the science which this vast experimental tank I'm standing beside us has given us. As we've already heard it's a challenging environment for lots of reasons it's deep it's dark. I do so also rather cold but how cold Professor Moghul is a physical oceanographer at the Scottish center for marine science you know OK so if you decided to go out from Castle say out into the middle of a long new lower thermometer down on the end of a long piece of string the surface layers will have lots of carbon substances from from rotting vegetation leaves and so forth coming out in the rivers and also sediments So when the strong spate from some of the rivers you might find the surface waters are more cloudy because they carrying sediment peaty sediments down from the rivers and burns the water comes in at the surface from the rivers there are no deep inputs of water into the law and the Deep Water is a slowly warmed from below by this slide geothermal warming and then they're warmed and cooled from above depending on the seasons so how long those deepest Warse of actually being there I'm I'm not sure the answer is well known. You're always aware of the depths it's just that feel it having the water it's so dark that you just feel the depths below you 1st time are in. Oh you see is this big white town going through the black water it's a bit scary the 1st time Sandra Lee and Helen beverage both swim in the lot on a regular basis in all seasons no matter how cold you tease they're also very persuasive. But it doesn't feel love or that you know it's an issue. For the records your catching me in the process of removing removing what I would. Give every shade into going in and just not the searing custard that I've heard. C C You say that no I don't have it was yet never gets easier. They're in the water but want to. Allow yourself time to settle down and it gets easier to stay really DO YOU EVER shriek I am not a big shake I know but I did know man I know. There's a few of us are very good at 3 you. Write. That OK You were on the no. 0. I started streaming in the last Initially we were so in the pool with big of a small group of us and me to a friend with Sundin I started some in here less just really enjoyed it felt so much freer than the poo start to swim out those far more regularly enjoyed long long distances got into my rhythm and doing long distance swimming and I do most of my training here in in not less you've swum the channel. Did you do some of your training here in NES and if so. How much was lost ness A able to replicate the ocean. I think because of the long such that we have we do get big waves which really allowed me to get used to adapt. To those conditions that you get like with a lot less you really do get the bigger waves in the the different feel from an inconsistency is from them coming from different angles and thing so it was a great opportunity to get to train for the channel. When it leaves Helen Sandra and me enjoying I use the word loosely the surface of the log while we duck under those waves and head deeper in all again at about 20 metres why you are experiencing a change in temperature from warm above you to cold below you recall a lot of. The warm water is lighter it's not as heavy as the cold water and. That's what sits above the cold water interface goes up and down it doesn't just sit there at the same depth level all the time it can move up and it can move down busy and if you've been to Loch Ness you may want to notice that when the wind blows it almost always comes from the southwest so the wind is pushing the warmer surface water up towards Inverness and so what you end up with is more warm water piled up if you like towards Inverness end of the loch it doesn't really pile up on the surface but what it does is push down the cold water beneath it now that cold water can't go down into the rocks and it can't go sideways because the sides of the law so the cold water gets pushed the other way back towards Fort Augustus so you end up with a situation warm water push towards Inverness and cold water as a consequence pushed back towards 4 to Gustus and that situation will stay the same as the as long as the wind keeps blowing but if the wind stops and there's nothing any more cold in that warmer water up towards the Inverness and so it wants to if you like move its way slowly back down towards 4 to Gustus and at the same time the cold water the deep cold water that had built up of the fool to Gustus and wants to move its way back up to the Inverness and so you've got this water flowing water Gustus on the surface and this cold water flying towards a mass at that. See that as well yes this is a genuine sonar profile see how steep wall that is how flat bed it is Crescent sawfish there's a thermocline there the wall more and more water often. It's and I had it manned 24 hours a day for months and we recorded busy this huge underwater busy way moving under the bus in the course of a half. Dropped from 80 meters to 60 service from great majestic way over to part of this is a sort of sloping all sort of Asian develops that is only moving at about a kilometer per hour but yes we've studied them in considerable do so ultimately why this rising and falling of an interface is interesting is that it can move warm water downwards and cold water upwards which we call mixing of cold and warm water and that has implications and applications to the the ocean the global ocean where we think about how the warm surface waters in the cold deep waters interact and the final kind of piece of the jigsaw if you like is in NASA it turns out that this sea soaring isn't a nice straight line that just Warbles but was and forwards it actually manifests itself as a sharp step with lots of little waves behind it a lot less in the 1st place but these waves were observed in a freshwater law interestingly although it's provided us with a number of scientific firsts Loch Ness seems to both repel and attract researches in equal measure something Adrian shine has spent years trying to address it's done by seduction a lot ness is rather challenging environment and that's where having logistic resources. Can be a temptation to allow 1st. To come in and do things they might find it difficult to do otherwise there is also oddly enough a paradoxical cachet attaching to Rock Ness in terms of whether people want to work here or not some will be undoubtedly repelled and have been in. The dire consequences of being thought of being involved in something so much just because they've come to nothingness the total. All those were ruthlessly explosion is the best example being just this fairy spring with our environmental D.N.A. Assault which we did the deep water something. We're hoping that will start to get a handle on how many different forms and how many different char forms are in in this law to look at the evil how that has evolved into what are the conditions that lead to that how likely do you think it is that there will be a species of fish for example here that you know of that there is something in these will says and I'm not using the M. Word. That we don't know about so ready there is a surprise on the here I think undoubtedly there's going to be surprises what you might find is say for argument's sake stickleback which we know is widespread in Scotland but that is different in a morphological way that seem neat and adapted to the environment Yes So that is a different species can you get any kind of historic D.N.A. Will be. Species in the water column you will only get current species it and the D.N.A. In the water column tends to last me a few weeks but in certain situations you can actually get historical D.N.A. From sediments but these are areas where we're just starting to explore So again we don't even know what's here now to have to start asking what was here hundreds of years ago it is a more difficult challenge. What will take us back hundreds of years though is the geology of Loch Ness. Or again to the bottom of these the bedrock geology isn't particular you can infer it from the surrounding areas. A treasure trove of information for the for what's happened to the climate and landscape processes in the last. 10 or 15000 years most in last 10000 years because they've that they've got said Winter coming off that the rivers are running today to pour sediment into them that there's also all the organic matter that accumulates in there says a fantastic record of of Holocene climate change Lochness continues to be a fantastic record of change the story of Loch Ness is not fixed it's evolving with our understanding but that evolving story can only unfold if we continue to make observations continue to conduct and interpret research at the start of the program Rob explained how a geologist called Bill Kennedy back in the 1920 S. Observed that great on either side of the great grandfather it matched up but was offset by a 100 kilometers it taught us about lateral movement at the time it was a revelation actually Kennedy wasn't right there is 2 fold that it actually join up the movements are much bigger than he thought because if you look at that the same but actually chemically that difference and there are lots of other other Granites around the place that could potentially link up so what happened since Kennedy was that people started mapping relating this to offshore geology to other parts of North Atlantic and they realize that you're much better matches if you say there's something like about 45500 kilometers movement on this and did that revolution ripple out to revise how geologists were looking it teaches in other parts of the world very much so people people were aware that there were these the core strikes that force the move along the range for them sideways and people knew from from early monitoring of earthquakes a particular place like California on the Santa dress fall that there were there were movements associated with single earthquakes but an individual earthquake would only have me to a few meters tens of meters movement on it so you can demonstrate a little tweak in the Earth's surface from earthquakes by recognizing the. Faults in the geological record like this one which the ancient fold and seeing what the accumulation of many many earthquakes will give you establish is that earthquakes essentially chair you a little bit of the story in the deep structure of the earth embedded in the ancient structures can say what happens on long time scale so it did people to start recognizing big faults elsewhere. Why is pinning down the biodiversity of. Important there's various reasons why do you protect biodiversity any biodiversity Why do you protect the Scottish Crossbill. You know it's supposed to be a subspecies it doesn't matter if it exists or not. Well it matters to some people because they like to see it and they think it's unique Well there's just as many unique things in our losses but people aren't looking out of this is the only reason we don't protect things that are lost because people aren't looking out and we have a commitment to the real convention to protect all biodiversity so we cannot protect what's in our Los Altos we know it's there. Is only one law there's $30000.00 just in Scotland there's $5.00 to $7000000.00 Lakes across the whole northern hemisphere and point 999 percent of these we know nothing about. And that what they're finding where they're starting to look is if you have a diversity of fish what you tend to find is that they're also multiple forms of the invertebrates in food that they feed on. My whole body is to spawn attained they. Had time to get my towels and sheets is really strange but come out through the woman outside that 10 minutes before you start to shave it down to get dressed now. And you've been listening to brain waves next if you want to the whole brain wave series then head for B.B.C. Sounds online through the app. Understanding the next amongst a challenge but for many scientists it's a challenge to be embraced because if you do take the plunge the rewards from researching this iconic stripe of water carving through the Scottish landscape. Can be many and surprising Paul was a. Real change the feel good L. Was absolutely all my skin is just oversized burning up the head is it I've got that 5 minutes before you really get cultured and it is. A jack of. All my. Good morning my name is Blair Albert some from the rising of the sun to the going down of the same God's name is to be praised Let us pray live in loving God in whom we live and move in have our being you love the whole of creation into existence and made each of us unique in your image you love us not just as the human race but you love us as Bill and Brenda Joyce and Jock and Alan pot and Chris with our particularly oddities and possibilities our feelings and our fears our idiosyncrasies and our ideas generous God Your desire for us is that we live life in all its foolishness unsought you already turn lead ready to forgive us free us and set our feet on a new path knowing that we will wander away again in humility reclaim that forgiveness and pledge again our love as disciples of Jesus before we ever loved you all God you loved us while we were still sinners Christ died for us rejoice in this the good news thanks be to God amen.

Besides all this between you and also a great chasm has been fixed but those who might want to pos from here to you cannot do so a new one can cross from there to us he said Then father I beg you to send to my father's house for I have 5 brothers but he may warn them but they will not also come into this place of torment Abraham replied they have movies on the prophets they should listen to them he said No father Abraham but if someone goes to them from the dead they would repent he said to him if you don't listen to more of these and the prophets neither will they be convinced even if someone rises from the dad a man.

Nice days in history and that's how Shane. Picture the scene we're in the village of Bethany not far from Jerusalem ruin a house belonging to Simon it's said by some that he used to be a leper if that's the case then this might be the 1st time in a long time that he's had friends for dinner with a party what a feast. Simon's right hand side in the place of honor is Jesus the teacher from Nazareth He and his friends seem to be making the most noise of all for all his religion this Jesus knows how to enjoy himself. The back of the room a woman's just entered she's coming towards the table carrying something it's a jar the kind you keep expensive per fume in no she stopped the Jesus off in the jar and is pulling this perf human over his head the dinner guests recognize the smell pure nod the most expensive per fume you can buy some gas don't approve auto race they're saying that per From could have been sold and the money given to the poor now would Jesus speaks let her alone don't trouble her this is a beautiful thing she's done for me you always have the poor with you and you can do good to them whenever you want but you won't always have me let's pause and draw away from that scene but hold on to the words of Jesus we always have the proof with us don't we know how true that is. I wonder though if the 2nd part of what Jesus said is so familiar and you can do good to them when ever you want keep those words in your mind as you picture another scene the scene is a doorway to a grand house inside the house is a rich man who enjoys the best his money can buy him a great feasts of the finest food and wine with his guest reclining on some trees furniture we don't know the name of the rich man but at the door really lies a poor man and we do know his name it's Lazarus he'd be happy to eat the scraps that fall from the rich man's table but there aren't any His only company are dogs who lick the sores on his diseased body Jesus told a story about this rich man and this prove man called Lazarus. It's worth thinking about if only for the simple reason that the poor are still with us what come we see about this rich man whose name we don't know the fault of the rich man doesn't lie in him being wealthy his wealth isn't the problem it's the fact that despite his wealth he's done nothing to help us to him poor Lazarus is part of the landscape the poor one does the rich man will always have the prove with us the sin of the rich man is that he sees no dichotomy between him having all that wealth and lousiness how they nothing to be rich is his a lot of push in life and to be poor is the lot of Las Vegas people who sit in rags and Dorry's are just part of the landscape all you need to do for them is get the moved on by the police if they're making the police loop untidy after all the poor are always with us are they not the old Mon in a dirty coat unshaven smelly one dinner on the bus station always with us somewhere the bag lady must think to herself her possessions stuffed into poli bog she was arriving in her old proly she's always been with us the young man sitting in a shop dory dog at his side hot on the ground if it's not him today it's someone else they're always with us is this the way things are meant to be other poor to always be with us Can't something be done and Jesus says remember his words you always have the proof with you and you can help them when ever you like. The scent of the rich man in the pot of all is that he could have helped Lazarus but he was blind to the possibility he saw no reason to disturb the status quo is specially as it was in his favor after all why help the poor if we become less rich or get our hands dirty but the stay to school may not be right things could be different when ever you want to you can help the poor says Jesus and things can be different if we want them to be there are homes that are dump streets unsafe and children malnourished in our own cities it could be different AIDS is ravaging Africa but the multinational drug companies don't see that they could do something it could be different many of the funerals I conduct of babies who are still born have been born of mums who come from the putus parts of the city poverty causes ill health it could be different so much to be different through health education decent housing through imagination and compassion the rich man could rise from his velvet coach open the heavy door of his mansion and ask allows of us how he could help the particle goes on the rich Mon and both die and the roles are reversed Jesus likes to do this in his stories Lazarus goes to the potter dies the night him on earth how the rich man discovers hail and in hell the rich man suddenly sees laws address a now he wants to help Lazarus come with a smear of water to cool me but it's too late the rich man can't be helped. But he remembers his brothers and wants to be merciful towards them they must be warned off the feet that might be for them if they don't feed the other law to seize their doors but it's too late the warnings have been given and of warnings given by the living are not enough then warnings from the Dade would help what could the rich man have done he might have given Las Vegas the scrubs and the poor are often given the scraps the leftovers the slightly worn clothes and the things we don't want what else could the rich man have done. He might have invited to prove mountainside to sit at the table with them to share the food the warmth the friendship this is more than scraps This is sharing we were all taught the importance of sharing when we were children but as we grow and gather more possessions we forget the lesson Picture the scene a train or New York's underground system it's a cold wet miserable day a man comes through the train asking for money all he wears is a piece of trousers no shirt no shoes some passengers Giffen a few coins Loose Change the scraps one passenger has food in a bag a spear shirt for an overnight stay if I'd wanted I could have helped the poor by sharing my possessions but I didn't I sat there and did nothing the poor are always with us and we can help them whenever we wish of course not all of us are rich in the we but the man in the possible was but let's pause and take stock of the wealth we might have. Perhaps we are rich in friends enjoying the company of bright laughing people but we fail to see the others who are friendless lonely who never get invited to parties it's to them that Jesus tells us to give out of our riches. Perhaps we are rich an influence we know the movers and shakers of commerce politics and shirks does this wealth of influence help of those who are never listened to never spoken to the sharing of our wealth can be to remember the poor speak up for them in the right ears pun tell the truth that change is possible or perhaps we are rich in fief blessed with a strong awareness of God's care and love and presence can you meet God real for those who feel that God has abandoned them can you share your feet with those who want to have faith but find it hard can you remember the name of law as it is today whoever he is and pray for him or perhaps you're just rich and some of us are indeed probably most of us are in Kampala sent to the fork who carry all their possessions around with them and one bag and what some of us can spend in a meal out for 2 on one evening is the same as some families have to live on for a whole week I confess my guilt I enjoy good food and wine I am uncomfortable with the priorities a half from my wealth I could give more to the church and to charities I could live a simpler lifestyle one final point in the possible Jesus told the rich man isn't given a name I wonder what name we could call him by I think I know. That anonymous Richmond in Richmond has your name my name on the other hand the poor man has a name Las Vegas and the poor do have names perhaps only God knows their names but poor people have names and hopes and dreams and fears they are always with us they're just like us you can help them whenever you wish. You. See the. She was. The. Was the. Is. This. The. Peace I was. Not to be was. A child. It's me I have. That she was she. Was. Was. Really hoping to go and our prayers for others under our prayers for ourselves are the end of our prayers we will see the Lord's Prayer so that was pretty good thanks to going for all the love that has come to us the love of perience which brought us into the world. Brothers and sisters uncles and aunts grandparents and all other family to whom we are buying and in affection and shared history the strong love of spouse or partner which sustains us daily the absolute trust of children friends who accept us as we are remain loyal and above all else the mysterious generous love of God which we claim by Phaethon trust with our lives and as we give fights for the love which has come to us so we also give thanks for the love given to us in the past from those who are never gone from us yet they are more present to a mines under our love in their absence than we ever imagined was possible but we are also mindful of the disappointments and the feelings in love which of caused us hurt or for which we seek forgiveness so we pray for an increase in love the families might be strong through patients forgiveness and the forgetting of her it's that children might know generous nurturing love from pittance who are thankful for their responsibilities that each person who is committed to another in love a spouse or partner or friend might know security and peace in the gentleness unfaithfulness of love those who are lonely believe those who have no one to call their own me yet sense the Touch of Divine Love on their souls.
