Is an ice caps water fresh water or salt water?
Ice caps are made of fresh water. When this ice melts into the ocean, it contributes to the salinity of the water in that area.
Does Neptune have polar caps?
Yes, Neptune does have polar caps. Like Earth and other planets with atmospheres, Neptune's polar regions have icy caps composed of a mixture of water, ammonia, and methane ice. These polar caps experience seasonal variations as Neptune orbits the Sun.
What planet has polar ice caps 100 percent water ice?
no idea but the moon with 100% ice caps is europa
What percentage of the earth's freshwater supply is in the two polar ice caps together?
99% of the worlds freshwater is locked up in the polar ice sheets.
What are four ways in which fresh water is naturally added to seawater decreasing its salinity?
Melting of polar ice caps and glaciers adds fresh water to seawater. Precipitation in the form of rain or snow also contributes fresh water. Rivers and streams flowing into the ocean bring in fresh water. Groundwater seepage into the ocean is another natural source of fresh water.
Where is the greatest amount of fresh water?
In the Polar Ice Caps.
Only 3 percent of water is fresh Where is most of the fresh water located?
polar ice caps
Where is the greatest amount of fresh water trapped?
In the Polar Ice Caps.
Where is the majority of the fresh water found?
About 70-80 percent of fresh water can be found in polar ice caps and glaciers.
Where is the majority of the earths fresh water store?
Glaciers and icecaps.about 2/3 of Earth's fresh water is stored in polar ice caps and glaciers, while the rest are in freshwater streams and rivers running towards the ocean.Under ground****************The largest percentage of SURFACE fresh water is stored in the polar ice caps. If you would like your water as a liquid, go to the Great Lakes- they contain 21% of the world's surface fresh water.The ice caps, namely the North and South Pole. Most fresh water is frozen solid. The largest reservoirs of liquid fresh water on earth are the Great Lakes.In the polar ice caps
Where is most of are fresh found?
Fresh water? Well most fresh water is frozen in polar ice caps. But the largets fresh water lake is Lake Bakal in Russia. I do hope you meant freshwater.

Why does glaciers and polar ice caps have greatest amount of fresh water?
Cause Of Snow Marins And Glaciers
Where is the majority of earths fresh water stored in glaciers icecaps and icebergs lakes plants or the atmosphere?
In the Polar ice caps, about 69% of the worlds fresh water is in them.
Where does most of the drinking water comes from and is it increasing or decreasing?
it is decreasing it comes from fresh water sources (no oceans). and from the polar ice caps
Almost two-thirds of the earths fresh water is located?
Glaciers and icecaps.about 2/3 of Earth's fresh water is stored in polar ice caps and glaciers, while the rest are in freshwater streams and rivers running towards the ocean.Under ground****************The largest percentage of SURFACE fresh water is stored in the polar ice caps.

How much fresh water is stored in ice caps?
It is estimated that ice caps and glaciers contain about 68.7% of the world's fresh water supply. This frozen water is stored primarily in Greenland and Antarctica, with smaller amounts in other glaciers around the world. Melting of these ice caps contributes to global sea level rise.
