How would glaciers be affected by changes in climate such as global warming and global cooling?

In global warming, the glaciers would melt, then they would flow into the ocean, then they could affect ocean currents, changing the climate, in some areas. And with global cooling, there would be more glaciers, depleting the ocean waters.

How do scientist predict climate?
The scientists observe the changes in climate very carefully. They know that the daily changes in climate are caused by storms and fair weather moving over the Earth . They know that the seasoning changes are due to the turning of Earth around the sun.The most important cause of climate is the heating and cooling of the air.
What climate has evergreen forest vegetation?
The Evergreen Forest Vegetation are mainly in the Tropics. This temperate forests originated during the period of cooling of world climate.
Overall cooling of earth's climate is associated with what?
Clouds of dust and ash in the atmosphere from a huge volcanic eruption.
What is A long period of climate cooling during which ice sheets spread beyond the polar regions is called a?
?
Do forest fires cause climate changes?
Forest fires release a lot of carbon dioxide that was being stored in the trees. This adds to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. On the other hand, large amounts of smoke from forest fires can block the rays of the sun for a time, causing a temporary cooling.
What is cooling effect?
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.

What caused the climate of the badlands to change?
climate cooling and drier air
How does glacier erosion affect the earth?
Glaciers have a high albedo: they reflect more of the Sun's light/heat back into space than bare soil. So their general effect would be cooling: the more glaciers, the larger the cooling effect.
What shape is a Cooling curve graph?
A Cooling curve graph changes shape.
What is a climate change that allowed flowering plants to increase?
Cooling
Can cooling effect in hot climate can be achieved by stone cladding?
no
What changes gas too a liquid?
Cooling and/or pressure changes gases to liquids.
Is temperature affected by elevation?
Yes. It is called adiabatic heating & cooling.
What would happen to the global climate if there were a dramatic decrease in greenhouse gases trapped in the atmosphere?
The climate would start cooling.
What age of time did glaciers form?
Current glaciers are still forming, but the most recent period of cooling and massive glaciation know as 'The Ice Age', occured in the Pleistocene, starting around 1.8 million years ago.
What happens to cooling if the rotation of an induction motor changes?
Cooling remains same irrespective of the motor rotational direction.
