Which 2012 data give the best support for climate change?
Less sea ice covered the Arctic Ocean
What are the benefits of global warming to farmers?
Modern Day Drought stricken ranchers is Texas hate Climate Change. Climate Change is directly related to Global Warming and Sea Ice Melting.
How does climate change affect the biodiversity of marine ecosystems?
Although throughout Earth's history the climate has always changed with ecosystems and species coming and going, rapid climate change affects ecosystems and species ability to adapt and so biodiversity loss increases. ... Loss of Arctic sea ice threatens biodiversity across an entire biome and beyond.
How do sea and land location affect climate?
Vegetation and land cover can affect climate. How? When the temperatures of the land increase, changing the climate.
What does the Fourth Report of the IPCC say about the Antarctic?
The Fourth Report of the IPCC (The United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), Climate Change 2007, said:Antarctic sea ice shows no significant overall trend, consistent with a lack of warming in that region.Losses from the land-based ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica have very likely (>90%) contributed to sea level rise between 1993 and 2003.Climate change has resulted in changes in some Arctic and Antarctic ecosystems."Sea ice is projected to shrink in both the Arctic and Antarctic … In some projections, Arctic late-summer sea ice disappears almost entirely by the latter part of the 21st century."
How is climate change a reality?
because the ice caps are melting and sea levels are dreamatically rising.
Are sea-level changes an impact on climate change?
No, sea level rises are a result of climate change. Warming oceans expand and so the sea level rises. Melting glaciers and ice caps also add to the rise.
Does a climate model describe sea-ice?
All climate models that I'm aware of do parameterize sea ice.
How could climate change affect the ecosystems of the island nation of Samoa?
Climate change could affect the ecosystems of the island nation of Samoa by flooding lowlands with a rising sea level. Much of Samoa is only a few feet above sea level.
Which 2012 data give the best support for climate change?
Less sea ice covered the Arctic Ocean

How does sea level affect the climate?
The sea level doesn't really affect the climate, it's the reverse of your question. The climate is able to affect sea level because if the climate were hot, then there would be more evaporation, which means less water. Also, in hot climate ice can/will melt causing higher sea levels and more erosion on minerals and dirt. If the climate were freezing/cold, water could freeze, less overall flooding would occur, etc. However "climate" is the overall temperature and weather/patterns throughout the duration of 1+ year(s).
How does climate change affect the biodiversity of marine ecosystems?

What effects would climate change have on sea levels?
That depends on which way the climate is changing, a globally colder climate would see the buildup of ice on land and sea levels would fall. A warming climate would have the opposite effect, sea levels rising and coastal cities and croplands destroyed.
What type of environmental change can stop the development of an organic sedimentary rock?
Extinction of different species, loss of sea-life through climate change, or the drying up of the ocean through land uplift. Even an ice-age might affect the process.
Why do scientists think the Pacific walrus is endangered?
Scientists feel that since the Pacific Walrus rest on sea ice to forage for food, climate change is making that sea ice disappear and the walrus will have no place to rest.
How do sea and land location affect climate?
Vegetation and land cover can affect climate. How? When the temperatures of the land increase, changing the climate.
