Gen 7:11-12
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, on the seventeenth day of the second month--on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12 And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights.
So rain, and "the springs of the great deep."
Please explain what "the springs of the great deep" is.

M*W: Let me preface this comment with this is not my area of expertise, but I have heard scientists say "there is no new water." Every drop we have has been with us in some form since the beginning of our universe. That means water, ice, steam, vapor, icebergs, snow, rain, clouds, dew, etc. Again, this is not an area I am familiar with, so no nasty comments are needed. I believe what I've heard, in that global warming is nothing new. The icebergs that are melting are lighter than water, so there will be no flooding when the icebergs melt. The water cycle will still exist even if the types of water change. Then our climate/ecobiology will adapt to whatever comes about.
