That I have no problem with.  Tools and other relatively small objects 
can end up IN the glacier and be carried along with it or, as you say, 
if they are underground so never have contact with the glacier.

How far do glaciers grow and shrink annually?

Proper ones scrub down to bedrock IIRC.

Mountain climbers get frozen into them and pop out at the bottom 
after a hundred years or so.  

You can dig tunnels in them.  So you could build artificial
caves inside a glacier, charge admission, which mean putting
a ticket office and turnstile in there.  That might leave 
signs visible in the days of the newer flood.

That's hugely variable.  You might want to check out the history of
Glacier Bay in Alaska for an example of a fast-moving (in both
directions) one.

>Proper ones scrub down to bedrock IIRC.

Often, but not invariably.  Again, check out Glacier Bay, which
scrubbed the Tlingit community away but did NOT go clear to bedrock --
it left a thin film of soil and debris where villages had been.

And now it's turning out that glaciers can entomb objects as large as
upright trees in such a manner that they are not destroyed by the
passage of the glacier.

The article doesn't say buildings, nor does it give enough detail to

Well, in the case I am thinking of we only have the deep workings of  the mine.  Any surface structures are long gone.  Mind you, I don't know if this mine was ever covered in ice. But the claim is that others were, and while I don't know that for a fact, I don't find it implausible.

If the climate cools sharply, snow will cover the ground and form ice long before ice will actually flow over the site.  The land surface will still be affected by the flow, but perhaps to a lesser degree.

The activity at the base of a glacier or ice sheet can be of various types depending on the local temperature (thick ice sheets have liquid at the base), slope and nature of the ground, and so on.

Infra-red cameras are a red herring.

They take pictures with short-wave infrared light. It's long-wave 
infrared the differential absorption of which leads to the greenhouse 
effect.

Apparently they use three ranges, and the longer range is in the atmospheric window.  My source comments that this allows for greater detail than mid range, which use wavelengths at 3-5 microns.  For much of that range absorption is strong.  I'm still not clear on their range.

In any event, it's indeed irrelevant to Bryson's claim.

No, not OK. I’m going to need to see some justification for this claim. 
If 30 feet of air absorb 80% of IR, then 300 feet absorb 99.9999% of IR.

Well, _that's_ easy enough to explain.

Whenever energy gets absorbed, it doesn't just disappear. It becomes heat.

The question is really what kind of absorption is taking place. Is it the kind 
of absorption, followed by re-emission in the same direction and with the same 
wavelength, that happens to light in a transparent medium... or is the IR really 
heating up the air, with the air later emitting IR due to its own temperature?

I suspect that he may have made the mistake of mixing the two up, so that his 
figure of how much is absorbed is not so much wrong as misleading.

Absorbtion to heat would cause IR to be emitted omnidirectionally.  So
basking in the shade would pick up the re-radiated heat, and the sun
wouldn't have the same warm feeling.

I agree.  Unfortunately most experimental results I've been able to find focus on CO2 or vaporized cocaine (no, I'm not kidding).

Prof Bryson made a number of doubtful claims, but there's no contradiction here.  The sun heats us by solar, not IR.

Even for IR the above reasoning does not apply.  About 12% of IR from  the surface is at wavelengths not absorbed even by pressure-broadend H20 at current concentrations.  So at 300 feet at least that 12% would be getting out.

Which points to another way his comments are misleading.  CO2 does absorb IR at those wavelengths.  Thus a tiny amount of absorption of IR by CO2 has a disproportionate effect - it narrows the choke point, so to speak - and it is meaningless to compare the addition of a tiny bit more water and a tiny bit more CO2.  They don't do the same thing.

Well, he's right about particulate matter resulting in cooling.  In fact we can't account for 20th century climate change without including this factor, which continues today to keep the planet cooler (IIRC about .5C cooler) than it would be.  Aerosols, in fact, are rather good at suppressing tropical storms and convection in general.

But by 1976 climate modellers had concluded that the CO2 effect would be larger, in part because aerosols fall out of the atmosphere, while CO2 lingers for centuries.

In his 1986 talk he was still going on about how close we were to an ice age, but IIRC he was open to the idea that CO2 warming would stave that off.  Perhaps his ideas filtered  through to Niven and Pournelle.
