What will the glaciers do to the sea level rising?
As the glaciers and icecaps melt they will make the oceans rise and it's all because of global warming. Sea ice is in the water already so its melting will not affect sea levels.
What percent of freshwater do glaciers store?
25%
Was there a time with less glaciers?
Yes, during the Carboniferous period (i.e. the time when most of our coal resources formed) the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere were much much higher than they are now. This produced a greenhouse effect so strong that not only did the glaciers melt away but there was also no polar icecaps!
What kind of water is used to make an iceberg salt water or fresh water?
Iceberg water is typically freshwater because it comes from glaciers that originated from precipitation. This water freezes into icebergs before breaking off from the glaciers. Although icebergs may contain some salt on their surfaces from contact with seawater, the majority of the iceberg is freshwater.
Where water is found the most?
most of it is stuck in icecaps in the Arctic and Antarctic i hope this helps you :)
What type of glaciers are sometimes called icecaps?
A glacier and an ice cap are two different things so there are no glaciers called icecaps.
In what form is the majority of the world's fresh water?
Frozen. In glaciers and icecaps.
What percent of earth's fresh water is trapped in frozen icecaps and glaciers?
2%
Where is most of the freshwater of earth locked up?
About 70% of Earth's fresh water is found in glaciers and icecaps
What glaciers are sometimes called icecaps?
Glaciers that are sometimes called icecaps include those that cover mountain summits or form vast layers of ice that spread out over large areas of land, such as the Greenland Ice Sheet or the Antarctic Ice Sheet. These icecaps are characterized by their expansive coverage and thickness, and they play a crucial role in global climate regulation by reflecting sunlight and storing freshwater.
What area has the most water?
Oceans contain most of the world's water.Frozen icecaps and glaciers contain most of the world's fresh water.
What will the glaciers do to the sea level rising?
As the glaciers and icecaps melt they will make the oceans rise and it's all because of global warming. Sea ice is in the water already so its melting will not affect sea levels.
These glaciers are sometimes called icecaps?
These are glaciers that cover a large area but have a relatively low profile. They are often found in polar regions or high mountains and are commonly referred to as ice caps due to their shape and size.
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.
What percent of freshwater do glaciers store?
25%
When was Raleigh IceCaps created?
Raleigh IceCaps was created in 1991.
When did Raleigh IceCaps end?
Raleigh IceCaps ended in 1998.
