What if a portal is opened from the Mariana trench to the Sahara desert?
The first portal is placed at bottom-most point of the Mariana trench (the deepest part of any ocean, located in the western Pacific Ocean) and the second is placed in the Sahara desert in Africa at the point farthest from any ocean.
The second portal is inverted so the water jets directly to the ground. Each portal is 10 kilometres in diameter and stable.
Assume the system is a one way transfer, i.e. from trench to Sahara.
The portal system has zero mass transfer losses and there's no energy consumption by them or by objects pass through them. They're connecting the two points on earth in space-time. They're not affected by the altitude difference or the potential energy difference between them.
What will be the climatic changes on earth as a result of this?
