During a glaciation:
Sea-level falls (world-wide - the phrase "rising sea-levels", in the plural, you hear bandied about is rather silly). Consequently more land is exposed - albeit that a lot of it is covered in ice, with the tundra and sub-arctic areas moving to lower latitudes.
During a warm interglacial (as now):
Sea-levels rise, drowning previously exposed areas, though less of the land is buried under ice and the tundra fringes retreat Pole-wards.
There isn't a "the Ice Age". An ice-age, such as the present one, is a series of alternating cold and warm phases.
What else can I help you with?
How are the area and the oceans affected during ice age?
During an ice age, large parts of Earth's land area can be covered by ice sheets and glaciers, leading to lower global sea levels as water is locked up in ice. The oceans can be affected by changes in circulation patterns due to the redistribution of ice and changes in temperature and salinity, which can impact marine ecosystems and weather patterns.
How rainfall is caused by monsoon winds?
Monsoon winds blow warm, moisture-laden air from the oceans onto land. As the warm air rises over the cooler land, it cools and condenses, forming clouds and eventually leading to rainfall. This process repeats during the monsoon season, bringing consistent rainfall to the affected regions.
During the most recent ice age glaciers covered about what percent of the earth's land area?
During the most recent ice age, glaciers covered about 30% of the Earth's land area.
What is the definition of 'Landmass'?
A landmass is a large area of land, such as a continent or an extensive stretch of land not broken up by bodies of water. It refers to a continuous expanse of land that is distinct from bodies of water like oceans or rivers.
Why are there different oceans on Earth?
The Earth has different oceans because of the way the continents are arranged on the planet. The oceans are separated by land masses, creating distinct bodies of water such as the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, and Arctic oceans.
How are land area and the oceans affected during an ice age?
They are affected because the ice falls onto and into the water and land
How are land area and oceans affected during an ice age?
They are affected because the ice falls onto and into the water and land
How are the land area and the oceans affected during an ice agea?
They are affected when the ice break off the land and melts making the ocean a bit bigger and the land a bit smaller.

What is an area of land that sticks out of lakes or oceans?
A peninsuala.
Water falls to the land and oceans during?
Precipitation
Why does more water evaporate off of oceans than off of land?
Because the water area of oceans is greater than the water areas from the land.
Country with greatest percentage of land area affected by desertification?
Niger has the greatest percentage of land area affected by desertification, with approximately 80% of its total land area impacted by the process.
Why are the oceans getting bigger?
sea levels are rising due to global warming and this decreases land area, expanding the ocean area.
How did land bridges help people migrate around the world during during the ice ages?
During a glaciation, water evaporated from the oceans falls on the land in higher latitudes as snow. If the snow doesn't melt during successive cold summers it builds up and turns to ice. Repeated evaporation and snowfall causes the oceans to lose water over many years, this causes the level of the oceans to drop, revealing more land above sea level. What was previously a shallow sea becomes dry land, hence a "land bridge".
What oceanian country is the largest in land area?
If I understand this question correctly, it asks what country surrounded by oceans has the largest land area and that would be Australia.
