Explain the evidence of Global Warming as seen by the break-up of the Larsen B ice shelf?
During 31 January 2002-7 March 2002 the Larsen B ice shelf in Antarctica collapsed and broke up, 3,250 km² of ice 220 m thick disintegrated in a single season.
Glaciologists were surprised at the speed of the collapse, which they attributed to warm ocean currents melting under the shelf, and also ponds of meltwater on the surface of the shelf. This water melted during the 24 hours of daylight and worked down through cracks and fissures in the ice, acting like wedges to separate the shelf from the mainland.
The Larsen B ice shelf has been stable for more than 12 000 years.

Where on earth is there evidence Global Warming?
At the poles we see that the icecaps seen to be melting.
Do you realize global warming is a myth?
The overwhelming consensus among climate scientists is that global warming is real and primarily caused by human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels. The evidence for climate change is supported by data from temperature records, melting ice caps, and shifting weather patterns. It is important to rely on scientific evidence and expert consensus when evaluating issues like global warming.
Do evolutionists believe in global warming?
Not necessarily, as belief in evolution and belief in global warming don't really have anything to do with each other. That said, a person who believes in evolution is probably more likely to believe in global warming, as they tend to listen to what scientists say, and scientists are the biggest advocates for global warming being real.
What evidence do global warming deniers give that global warming is a hoax?
1) if the ice melts in the northern/ southern region of the world, the water level wont rise. BECAUSE that water is froze, it is expanded.
Are there politicians that don't believe in global warming?
Yes, there are politicians who do not believe in global warming or who question the scientific consensus on climate change. This skepticism can stem from ideological beliefs, financial interests, or a lack of understanding of the scientific evidence.
What is two pieces of evidence that English is the global?
global warming?
Is global warming warming the greatest danger to brown bears?
No, not at all. There is no evidence that the global warming is affecting brown bears.
What evidence is there that global warming is a myth?
There is no evidence that global warming is a myth. There has certainly been a lot of misinformation on the subject, often from vested interests, but the clear consensus of climate scientists is that global warming is real and that human activities are substantially the cause of global warming since the Industrial Revolution.
Why does global warming affect the migration pattern of birds?
There is no evidence that "global warming" is causing birds to migrate differently.
Would polar bears in Mexico be evidence for global warming?
No, that would probably be evidence for global cooling.
What was John Browne's position on global warming?
On May 19, 1997, in a speech at Stanford University, Browne declared that evidence suggested that global warming could be real. He argued that evidence that burning of fossil fuels was contributing to global warming
What pressure groups are critical of the evidence of global warming?
Extremely conservative groups tend to be more critical of the evidence of global warming. This has more to do ideology than idiocy, even though over 97% of scientists acknowledge the existence of of global warming.
Who are the scientists working with global warming?
The work of 15 climate scientists is helping to educate the public about the overwhelming scientific evidence for human-caused global warming.
Where on earth is there evidence Global Warming?
At the poles we see that the icecaps seen to be melting.
How did the deployment of nuclear weapons effect global warming?
I am pretty sure the deployment of nuclear weapons on Hiroshima and Nagasaki did not affect global warming. There is no evidence to suggest that the deployment of nuclear weapons in the second World War affected global warming in any way.
What hypotheses other than the greenhouse effect try to explain global warming?
Some alternative hypotheses to explain global warming include variations in solar radiation, volcanic activity, and natural climate cycles. However, the overwhelming scientific consensus is that human activities, primarily the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation, are the primary drivers of recent global warming trends.
Does global warming explain freak weather?
The connection between freak weather and global warming. Freak weather has always happened by chance. However if the number of freak weather events continues to increase, it seems probable that the increase is caused by global warming.
