No. As ice cubes float, they displace the same volume of water that they contain. This is known as Archimedes' Principle. If they melt, the water level will stay exactly the same. Try it yourself by adding an ice cube to a glass and marking the water level. After the ice melts, you will see that there has been no change in the water level.

What are the effects of icebergs melting?
Icebergs melting adds fresh water to the oceans. Icebergs are floating already, so when they melt they do not cause a rise in sea levels. Glaciers and land ice, like the Greenland ice-cap, and any ice on Antarctica, do cause a rise in sea levels when they melt.
What effect does global warming have on water?
the oceans levels are rising and the ocean is getting warmer the oceans level is rising cause the ice is melting.
How do icebergs affect their environment?
The icebergs affect the environment by melting and the melted ice will turn into water.then the water in the oceans will rise thus may cause drowning many people in one island
Can ash cause global temperatures to rise?
ash cannot cause global temperatures to rise. At least not all the time
The removal of material by erosion will cause the crust to what?
rise
Why does sea level rise?
When things get added to the ocean, sea levels rise. Think of it as having a glass of water and then adding ice cubes to it, the level of the water rises when the cubes are added. On a global scale, if a large piece of ice (such as a glacier) moved off the land it was sitting on and into the water (either as chunks or by melting), it will cause the sea level to rise a little.
What cause sea level to rise?
Global Warming and the melting of ice.
Does a jet stream or convection current cause gases and liquids to rise and sink in a circular path?
Convection current

After atoms and molecules of gases and liquids are heated they?
rise
What causes water to rise?
the melting of ice or glaciers
What can be expected to occur as climate change continues on earth?
the earth's temperature will continue to rise which will increase the amount of sea ice that is melting. This will cause coastal flooding
You have a pan with 2 inches of water. what happens to the water level when you introduce 4 1 cubic inch ice cubes?
The cubes will displace the water in the pan, causing the water level to rise by an amount equal to the volume of the cubes. The amount of the rise of the water level will depend on the dimensions of the pan.
Why does the fat rise to the top?
