Ice samples from glaciers provide evidence that today's atmosphere contains more carbon dioxide than ancient atmosphere on earth did.why id this increase in carbon dioxide a concern to scientists?

It is of no concern to scientists - its just data. However, it is a concern to the human beings who are also scientists since their environment is getting fouled up.

What was formed over thousands of years because of the thawing and freezing of water?
it formed glaciers it formed glaciers
Glaciers often form parallel scratches and grooves in bedrock because glaciers?
Drag loose rocks over Earth's surface
Where is most of earths fresh water found?
Mostly in Antarctica. 3% of the world's water is FRESH water. But, therefore, ONLY 1% of it is actually drinkable. Fresh water is stored in the glaciers of Antarctica, Greenland etc, icebergs, shallow ground water, and lakes and rivers.
How are horns cirques and aretes related?
They are all formed by glaciers.
Where is most of Earths freshwater found?
Glaciers and polar ice caps.
Which system contains ice and glaciers?
atmosphere
Is there any evidence that global warming is responsible for melting the worlds glaciers?
It's logical. If the earth is warming, and scientists (and our own experiences) tell us that it is, then one of the effects of a warming atmosphere is that it warms things in the atmosphere. Glaciers are exposed to the air, the air is warmer, and so the glaciers melt. Therefore, global warming is responsible for melting the world's glaciers.
Why are there evidence of glaciers from area that are currently warm such as India and Africa?
because scientists are studying them
Why does India have evidence of glaciers that are more than 240 years old enen though it is located on the equator?
it has evidence of these glaciers because of the existence of Pangea.In the diagram that scientists believe Pangea was India Was Connected to the South Pole meaning it would have evidence of having glaciers on it
What are all the scientists that study glaciers?
The scientific study of glaciers and their effect on the landscape say again
What evidence leads some scientists to believe that there is no global warming or it is not caused by human activity?
There is no evidence proving global warming is not happening. A very tiny number of scientists (usually not climate scientists) try to find evidence but they have found nothing.There is a colossal amount of evidence proving it is happening:Temperature records rising and being broken.Sea levels rising.Ice caps and glaciers melting.Animal, bird and insect habitats changing.More unusual weather and more powerful storms.
Did Mars have glaciers?
Mars still has glaciers. Besides the ice caps scientists have discovered glaciers near the equator of mars that are up to half a mile thick.
What are three pieces of evidence that scientists use to support the theory of the continental drift?
The 3 pieces of evidence is: 1. fossils 2. climate 3. glaciers Wegner found out that the same fossils were found on a different continent. There was this tropical plant (i forgot whats it called) was found at a icy cold region so then the plant couldn't grow there only by continental drift. The glaciers have scratches on them which was one of the evidence. I hope this really helped :D
What is evidence that an area was once covered by glaciers?
loess deposits
What evidence is there that earth climate is changing?
glaciers melting is an example
Where does Xenon come from?
It is supposede to be found in glaciers and creveces it is not found in the atmosphere.
Where do scientists obtain ice cores from?
Glaciers and/or the Arctic/Antarctic ice caps.
