No. Nor are they necessarily indicators of ambient temperature change.
About 1.7 percent (and falling, as many glaciers are melting due to climate change).
The declining Arctic ice cap is one indicator of climate change. Another is the condition of glaciers around the world. See the related links, below.
Glacial shrinkage from year to year indicates our climate is not sufficiently cool to preserve glacial ice. This suggests the climate is warming, overall.
No. There are no glaciers in Kansas. The climate is too warm and there are certainly no mountains.

Glaciers are large masses of COLD. When they get smaller, the micro-climate nearby warms up, further speeding up more melting, which leads to slightly more warming, and so on.

By keeping it frozen. Unfortunately global climate change has had a detrimental effect on most glaciers. In 1910 there were 150 glaciers in Montana's Glacier National Park, by 2010 there were barely 25 left.
Due to global warming. Rise in temperature. Climate change. Due to weather cycle.
No. There are no glaciers in Kansas. The climate is too warm and there are certainly no mountains.
No, sea level rises are a result of climate change. Warming oceans expand and so the sea level rises. Melting glaciers and ice caps also add to the rise.
Cooling Effects is caused by the melt down of mountain glaciers at the north pole when this continue it will cause the earth a climate change.
