What else can I help you with?
What is an arctic ice caps?
It is an ice cap (ice berg) found in the arctic.
When ice forms water its volume comes down so why would ocean levels rise if Arctic ice melts?
Much of arctic ice sits above the level of the ocean. When this ice melts it adds to the volume of the ocean without subtracting any ice volume.
Are diamonds mined in the arctic?
NOTHING is mined in the arctic. The arctic is only ice.
Which holds more ice the North pole or the South Pole?
The South Pole, Antarctica, holds far more ice than the Arctic. Arctic ice floats on the ocean and is no more than one metre thick. Antarctic ice is a maximum of 4.7 kilometres deep at Terre Adélie.
Why does it snow more in northern states?
It snows more in northen states because those states are far away from the equator. The equator is the hotest part of the world So where it's far down south or far up north there's ice. Examples: Antarctica is far down south with ice and Greenland is far up north with ice.
Is the Arctic melting?
YES the Arctic has seen ice loss.
Is it the Arctic or the Antarctic region that is solid ice?
The arctic is is mostly ice. Antarctica is a continent that is included in the antarctic region.
Is antarctica a continent covered by ice and snow just like the arctic?
yes, with exception that the arctic's ice is melting
How much more ice has the arctic over Antarctica?
There is much more ice covering Antarctica -- about 90% of the earth's store of ice -- than in the Arctic.
What are Arctic rocks?
The Arctic is a mass of floating ice, so there are no rocks.
The ice sheet is approximately 1500 meters thick in the Arctic or Antarctica?
The ice sheet exceeds 1500 meters in both of these ice sheets, with the Arctic ice sheet referring to the Greenland Ice Sheet.
When will there be no Arctic?
There will always be an Arctic becsuse the Arctic is a place. The ice is melting and it is warming and changing, but it will be there. There will always be ice there though, because it still gets very cold in the winter.
