What are the causes of global warming in the Arctic?
The causes of global warming in the Arctic are the same as anywhere in the world.Global warming is the recent rapid warming of the earth, caused by the human activities of deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity. This burning releases carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas, which is building up in the atmosphere.

What factors influence the rate of warming in a particular spot on earth's surface?
This is caused by the earth's tilt. Vertical rays of the sun hit the earth at points between 23.5 degrees of the equator. Where ever the radiation is perpendicular to the surface, radiation is being maximized, and therefore must be transported elsewhere around the earth to account for this uneven heating.
What is the gradual warming of the earth called?
Global Warming
Can global warming make the earth colder?
It's possible that some parts of the earth will become colder in the early stages of global warming. Changing wind streams can bring cold weather unexpectedly down from the Arctic, or up from the Antarctic. The failure of the Gulf Stream would certainly make Britain colder. However, if global warming continues, then everywhere will eventually become warmer.
Where is the Earth Affected by Global Warming?
Global Warming can affectthe Earth in many ways and everywhere!
How does global warming come to earth?
Global Warming is coming to earth. It is because of ozone depletion.
Should you be concerned about global warming in Antarctica?
You should be concerned about global warming everywhere. The Arctic will probably show earlier signs of warming than the Antarctic, which is the coldest place on earth. Parts of West Antarctic are melting, but not much is happening in the East, where the ice cap is more than two kilometers thick.
Why is the Arctic Circle drawn on the globe?
The Arctic has a unique ecosystem of plants and animals that are found nowhere else on Earth. The Arctic is also special because it is warming at least twice as fast as the rest of the world and is in extreme danger.
