Physical Constraints on the Noachian Deluge.
Soroka, Leonard G.; Nelson, Charles L.
Journal of Geological Education, v31 n2 p135-39 Mar 1983
To test the literal biblical account of Noah's flood, four sources of possible flood waters were evaluated to determine if a natural (as opposed to supernatural) explanation is possible. Sources include rain, hydrothermal springs, and two types of cometary impact. Thermodynamic constraints preclude a natural means of accounting for the flood. (Author/JN)
