Ice will melt due to Global Warming.....Arctic sea ice (the habitat of polar bears)Antarctic land ice (raising sea levels)Mountain glaciers (cutting off the year round water feed for great rivers).
The North Pole is situated in the Arctic Ocean, where the temperature is never warm enough to melt the thick sea ice that freezes much of the year.
There will be more droughts, floods, and other natual disaters, sea level will rise.Because the ice of the arctic and the Antarctic will melt
no sea, one grain of sea salt takes 1 hour to melt
The Antarctic ice could not conceivably melt entirely within the next few thousand years, because it is so large. In fact, only the small Antarctic Peninsula, to the south of South America, seems to have been noticeably affected by recent global warming. The arctic sea ice is melting, but melting sea ice does not really affect sea levels. The worst that could happen here is the extinction of the polar bear, and perhaps changing weather conditions in some parts of the northern hemisphere. Since sea ice is reflective, it has a cooling effect, so the loss of sea ice can also contribute to global warming. As the ice shelves and glaciers of the arctic region melt, sea levels will rise, as they have already begun to do.

Ice caps and glaciers rest on land, so when they melt, the water goes into the ocean, as opposed to sea ice (Arctic) and icebergs.
Yes, the Antarctic Desert is a true ice (or polar) desert. Those parts of the Arctic that occur on land are better described as tundra. Much of the Arctic is either open sea or frozen sea ice.

ice caps melt when it gets to hot and when they melt the sea rises i love Sophie Coleman 4eva
Sea Salt melts ICE
Global Warming
Actually, the Arctic is not really a desert. Most of it is sea ice and those parts that do occur on land are tundra which is a distinctly different biome. The Antarctic is a true desert, however.
There is an Antarctic Desert but no Arctic Desert. The Arctic is mostly open sea, frozen sea ice and tundra.
The Antarctic is a landmass: the Arctic is sea ice.
No, in the Arctic there is nothing but sea under the ice cap.
Arctic sea ice reaches its minimum each September. September Arctic sea ice is now declining at a rate of 13.3 percentper decade.
