How much would the sea level rise if all the icebergs melted?

According to the Third Assessment Report of the International Panel on Climate Change, the ice contained within Greenland Ice Sheet represents a sea-level rise equivalent of 7.2 metres (24 feet).


What would happen if the earth gets 4 degrees hotter?

A 4 degrees Celsius increase in Earth's temperature would lead to more frequent and intense heatwaves, ice melt in polar regions accelerating sea level rise, disruption of ecosystems and water supplies, increased extreme weather events, and potential food and water shortages. This level of warming could have catastrophic effects on both human societies and natural habitats.


Is the world going to flood in the year 2055 because of global warming?

No. While sea level is expected to rise, it will not flood the entire planet. There is not enough water on Earth to do so. Even if all the ice in the world were to melt, which is not a realistic possibility, sea level would only rise by about 230 feet. Such a rise would cover low-lying places, but most of the land area on Earth would remain high and dry. The worst-case scenario projections suggest a sea-level rise of 4 to 7 feet by the year 2100.


What is the temperature in the continental rise?

The temperature in the continental rise typically ranges from 0 to 4 degrees Celsius. This temperature is relatively constant due to the deep ocean currents that circulate around the ocean basins.


What are the five steps in cloud formation?

Air is heated by the sun, causing it to rise and expand. As the air rises, it cools and condenses around tiny particles in the atmosphere, forming water droplets. These water droplets gather together to form clouds. Clouds continue to grow as more water vapor condenses onto the droplets. Eventually, when the droplets become large enough, they fall to the ground as precipitation.
