no and mountain does not melt unless under very very hot tempertaures and pressure.

Can global warming cause the oceans to rise?
Yes. Global warming melts ice. Its not the ice that already drifts on the seas that is a problem, it displaces the volume of its weight, so if it melts, water levels will not rise. But the ice that covers land does not do this. If it melts, it will increase ocean levels.
What illness does global warming cause?
absolutely nothing.... except if you're in the sun a lot... global warming just melts the ice caps and increase the water level by 40%
Is global warming due to ice melting?
Ice melt is a consequence of global warming, not a cause of it. Though ice reflects light quite well, and as it melts, earth's albedo decreases, resulting in a feedback mechanism which further increases global warming.
Does global warming affect the survival rate of polar bears?
Global Warming does affect the survival rate of Polar Bears because Global Warming Melts the ice.
What will global warming do animals?
melts the polar icecaps and could cause climate change which could make many animals extinct around the world
What are the implications of the release of methane gas from Arctic sea?
This is one of the feedback loops of global warming. Global warming melts the ice and oceans. This releases methane (CH4) hydrates from the bottom of the ocean. The methane is a powerful greenhouse gas that in turn causes more global warming. So more methane melts, and so on.
What type of landforms can transformation cause?
it depends if ice melts it turns in to water so Greenland is melting due to global warming and will soon be in the form of rivers
What will happen to the wildlife in Antarctica if the ice melts from global warming?
Answer Hi Wildlife in Antarctica will eventually become extinct if all the ice melts from global warming, as the temperatures would be too high for them to handle and there would be no land mass cold enough for them to exist on. Unless they manage to evolve in time (which is not likely), this would be the result. bye
How does global warming affect cyclones?
Due to global warming the rainfall pattern changes, sea level rises as the glacier melts. This whole thing results in more cyclones and hurricanes.
How does the global warming affect the poles?
It melts the polar ice caps, causing extra water in the ocean.
How does global warming affect erosion?
Global Warming is the cause of a lot of things and erosion may be increased in certain areas from global warming. As we know global warming will increase the planets temperature. Down in Antarctica, where it is all ice this is not good. So the ice melts as it does in plenty of other polar regions where the water has warmed. The water levels rise and begin to erode the beaches and land very slowly, but none the less it does increase. That's why dredging must be done to keep the beaches there, even though they do dredge even if global warming wasn't a problem. This is one way that i know of his global warming affects erosion.
What environmental issue is of concern for the Netherlands?
Global warming is, The Netherlands lies below sea level, our dykes are keeping the water out, if the pole ice melts due to global warming our country will be in hazzard of flooding.
