The latest scientific estimate is that sea levels will rise by between 90 centimetres and 150 centimetres over the present century, depending on progress made in limiting the production of carbon dioxide by human activities.
answer:
. More current estimates have cut the IPCC esitmates in half since their guess in 2007. The next century is currently being estimated to be similar to the last century and continue in the 2 mm a year range for increase.
What else can I help you with?
How does sea level rise?
Sea levels rise with the tides.
How does the rise in sea level affect the thundering?
A rise in sea levels will not affect the thundering.
Do ice shelves cause sea level to rise?
If the ice shelves are on land, then, yes, when they melt, sea levels will rise. If they are floating, then sae levels will not rise.
Why do sea levels rise when ice sheets melt?
When ice sheets melt, the water from the ice flows into the ocean, causing sea levels to rise.
How much has sea level risen in 100 years?
Sea levels have risen by approximately 8 inches (20 cm) over the past century. This rise is primarily due to the melting of glaciers and ice caps, as well as the thermal expansion of seawater caused by global warming. Continued sea level rise is expected in the future due to ongoing climate change.
If the ice sheets of western Antarctica melt how much would sea levels rise?
Approximately one meter
What is the future of the greenhouse effect?
Well, if this continues, sea levels will rise and will make many hurricanes. These will crate a second ice age. But we have to stop it before the year 2018.
What will happen if the ice melts?
the earths sea levels will rise
What is causing worldwide sea levels to rise?
global warming
Why is the increase of co2 making sea levels rise?
The increase in CO2 concentration in the atmosphere leads to higher global temperatures through the greenhouse effect. This causes ice sheets and glaciers to melt, adding more water to the oceans and causing sea levels to rise. Additionally, warmer water expands, further contributing to the rise in sea levels.
Do all hurricanes make sea levels rise?
No. Hurricanes can cause storm surges, especially if combined with high tides, which can overwhelm levees and flood coastal areas temporarily. They do not raise global sea levels. The melting of ice caps and glaciers and the expansion of the warming oceans will raise sea levels.
How does heat effect the earth?
The warmth heats up the icebergs in the sea. this causes sea levels to rise....
