How are the area and the oceans affected during ice age?

During an ice age, large parts of Earth's land area can be covered by ice sheets and glaciers, leading to lower global sea levels as water is locked up in ice. The oceans can be affected by changes in circulation patterns due to the redistribution of ice and changes in temperature and salinity, which can impact marine ecosystems and weather patterns.

During an ice age earths sea level?

During an ice age, Earth's sea level generally drops because water is locked up in the polar ice caps and glaciers. This causes less water to be in the oceans, leading to lower sea levels compared to during interglacial periods.


What do sea levels do during an ice age?

During an ice age, sea levels typically drop because a significant amount of water becomes locked up in glaciers and ice sheets on land. As the ice sheets expand, they draw water from the oceans, causing sea levels to decrease.


How are the land area and the oceans affected during the ice age?

During a glaciation: Sea-level falls (world-wide - the phrase "rising sea-levels", in the plural, you hear bandied about is rather silly). Consequently more land is exposed - albeit that a lot of it is covered in ice, with the tundra and sub-arctic areas moving to lower latitudes. During a warm interglacial (as now): Sea-levels rise, drowning previously exposed areas, though less of the land is buried under ice and the tundra fringes retreat Pole-wards. There isn't a "the Ice Age". An ice-age, such as the present one, is a series of alternating cold and warm phases.


Did Japan and Korea have a land bridge during the ice age?

Yes Japan and Korea did have a land bridge in the Ice Age.


Why is the sealevel so low during ice age?

Ice is frozen water. It is evident that if a lot of the land is covered with ice then that ice had to come from somewhere. The only places it could come from are the oceans. Water evaporates from the oceans, it falls on high ground as snow and over time this compacts into ice. If water is being evaporated from the oceans and none is being returned then the water level drops.
