The level of sea and ocean waters on Terra will be increased.
What will happen:
- there would probably be no polar bears because grizzly bears would move further North. Grizzly bears have already begin moving North causing polar bear hybrids.
- There has been a 40% reduction of ice since 1970, so this is a problem for the species that live in the Arctic.
If all the ice melted in the North Polar regions, there would be no rise in sea levels, because Arctic ice is in the water already.If all the ice melted in the South Polar regions, in Antarctica, then sea levels around the world would rise 70 metres, or 230 feet. Every coastal city round the world would be flooded, including New York State.
This is only a hypothetical, since it is generally agreed by even the most pessimistic scientists that this ice cap will not melt in our lifetimes. If it did happen, then sea levels would rise by several meters and we would have to abandon many of our coastal cities and productive coastal farmland. A more realistic possibility is that the Greenland ice caps would melt, raising sea levels by a lesser amount.
They'd be flooded or even completely submerged.
Melted ice cream is a heterogeneous mixture.
No, Greenland is not always covered by ice. It experiences seasonal variation in ice coverage, with the majority of the island covered by ice year-round, but in the summer months, some of the ice does melt.
The sea level would rise more than 60 metres if all the world's ice, Greenland, Antarctica and all the glaciers, melted.
because when it has no ice its all green
Greenland is mostly covered by an ice sheet.
The Greenland Ice Sheet holds almost 3 million cubic kilometres of ice (684,00 cubic miles). If it all melted sea levels all over the world would rise by 7.2 metres (24 feet). Greenland will also rise up, because of the great weight of ice removed. This is called isostatic rebound.
It would flood
No, not all parts of Greenland. Along the coast would be less icy.
If all ice on Earth melted, global sea levels could rise by up to about 230 feet (70 meters). However, this scenario is unlikely to happen in the near future due to the large amounts of ice present in polar regions and the time it would take for it all to melt.
If all the ice melted in the North Polar regions, there would be no rise in sea levels, because Arctic ice is in the water already.If all the ice melted in the South Polar regions, in Antarctica, then sea levels around the world would rise 70 metres, or 230 feet. Every coastal city round the world would be flooded, including New York State.
Ice, its funny because iceland is all trees and stuff.
Yes, thunderstorms can occur in Greenland, but they are not as common as in other parts of the world. The combination of cold air masses and ice-covered surfaces can restrict the development of thunderstorms in this region.
when all the ice has melted
well all the ice melted so that would of melted the ice ... talk about tsunami
