When sea level rises, it can lead to coastal flooding, erosion of coastlines, and saltwater intrusion into freshwater sources. If the land sinks due to subsidence or other factors, it can exacerbate the impacts of rising sea levels, increasing the risk of flooding and other coastal hazards.
What else can I help you with?
How the formation of a submergent coastline differs from the formation of an emergent coastline?
When sea level rises or when land sinks, it forms a submergent coastline. When sea level falls or when land rises it forms a emergent coastline. Hope it works!
When the land surface sinks as a result of geologic processes what occurs?
No thats why im asking you guys
Is land that rises high above ground level called a plateau?
No, land that rises high above ground level is called a mountain or a mountain range. A plateau is a flat-topped elevated landform that is higher than the surrounding area.
The process by which land sinks with little or no horizontal movement is known as?
Atmospheric transport is the process by which land sinks with little or no horizontal movement.
What do you call water that rises and cover land?
Water that rises and covers land is a flood.
How the formation of a submergent coastline differs from the formation of an emergent coastline?
When sea level rises or when land sinks, it forms a submergent coastline. When sea level falls or when land rises it forms a emergent coastline. Hope it works!
What must result in a lower base level for rivers and streams?
The results of a lower base lever for rivers and streams is the sea level falls and the land rises. The base level is the level below which a stream cannot erode.
When land surface sinks as a result what occors?
the result is tht it becomes a valley!

What is land that rises at least 2000 ft above sea level?
Mountain
What is the area of land that measures millions of square kilometers and rises a considerable distance above sea level?
large land area that measures millons of square kilometers and rises a considerable distance above sea level
How are ocean breezes formed?
Water has a very high specific heat, meaning it takes a lot of energy to heat it up compared with other substances. Because of this, bodies of water such as oceans and lakes heat up more slowly during the day than the land does. As a result the air over the ocean is cooler than that over land. Air over the land rises while air over the ocean sinks, and then moves on to land to replace the rising air at ground level.
Why are earths landforms is still chaging?
the reason why is the molten lava gets hot and rises then cools of and sinks .that moves the land/plate tectonics that's what i have learnd.
Is land that rises high above ground level called a plateau?
No, land that rises high above ground level is called a mountain or a mountain range. A plateau is a flat-topped elevated landform that is higher than the surrounding area.
What land form usually rises more than 2000 feet above the level?
mountains

Atmospheric transport is the process by which land sinks with little or no horizontal movement.
What are cool breezes during the day cause by differences and heating and cooling rates of land and water?
Think about it this way - warm air rises. When air is over a warm surface, it will heat up and rise. Also remember this - water holds on to heat or cold longer than solids (like rock) do. Therefore, the land will heat and cool faster than the water will. So, picture this: In the morning time, everything starts to heat up because of the sun's rays. The land heats up faster. So the air over the land rises. As the air rises and rises, it begins to get cooler, until it sinks. This whole process creates a cycle of wind above the land and sea. The air drops on to the cold ocean, moves on to the land to replace the air that has risen (this causes the breeze) and then heats up and rises. The cycle continues, creating cool breezes from the ocean. The same happens at nighttime, but in reverse. The ocean is now warmer, because it is holding on to the heat from the day. The air sinks on to the cold land, and as the air over the ocean rises, the cool air on land rushes to replace it (causing a warm breeze out to sea). That air then rises and begins the cycle again.
