What else can I help you with?
What will melt because of global warming?
Ice will melt due to Global Warming.....Arctic sea ice (the habitat of polar bears)Antarctic land ice (raising sea levels)Mountain glaciers (cutting off the year round water feed for great rivers).
Why is the North Pole a piece of floating ice?
The North Pole is situated in the Arctic Ocean, where the temperature is never warm enough to melt the thick sea ice that freezes much of the year.
What will everything look like if you don't stop global warming?
There will be more droughts, floods, and other natual disaters, sea level will rise.Because the ice of the arctic and the Antarctic will melt
What will happen if the arctic melts vs if the antarctic melts?
The Antarctic ice could not conceivably melt entirely within the next few thousand years, because it is so large. In fact, only the small Antarctic Peninsula, to the south of South America, seems to have been noticeably affected by recent global warming. The arctic sea ice is melting, but melting sea ice does not really affect sea levels. The worst that could happen here is the extinction of the polar bear, and perhaps changing weather conditions in some parts of the northern hemisphere. Since sea ice is reflective, it has a cooling effect, so the loss of sea ice can also contribute to global warming. As the ice shelves and glaciers of the arctic region melt, sea levels will rise, as they have already begun to do.
What would melt faster a normal ice cube or a sea water ice cube?
A sea water ice cube would melt faster than a normal ice cube because sea water has a lower freezing point due to the presence of salt. This means that it would require less heat energy to melt the sea water ice cube compared to a normal ice cube.
What will melt because of global warming?
Ice will melt due to Global Warming.....Arctic sea ice (the habitat of polar bears)Antarctic land ice (raising sea levels)Mountain glaciers (cutting off the year round water feed for great rivers).
Why should the water level in sea increases when the icecap melts?
Ice caps and glaciers rest on land, so when they melt, the water goes into the ocean, as opposed to sea ice (Arctic) and icebergs.
Is Antarctica the only ice desert?
Yes, the Antarctic Desert is a true ice (or polar) desert. Those parts of the Arctic that occur on land are better described as tundra. Much of the Arctic is either open sea or frozen sea ice.
Why do sea levels rise when ice sheets melt?
When ice sheets melt, the water from the ice flows into the ocean, causing sea levels to rise.
Why is the North Pole a piece of floating ice?
The North Pole is situated in the Arctic Ocean, where the temperature is never warm enough to melt the thick sea ice that freezes much of the year.
When ice melt?
ice caps melt when it gets to hot and when they melt the sea rises i love Sophie Coleman 4eva
What does sea salt melt?
Sea Salt melts ICE
Why does sea ice melt?
Global Warming
Where is the Arctic Desert?
Actually, the Arctic is not really a desert. Most of it is sea ice and those parts that do occur on land are tundra which is a distinctly different biome. The Antarctic is a true desert, however.
What is the clothing in the Arctic Desert?
There is an Antarctic Desert but no Arctic Desert. The Arctic is mostly open sea, frozen sea ice and tundra.
Is the arctic ocean a continent?
No, in the Arctic there is nothing but sea under the ice cap.
What was the major difference about the arctic and the antarctic?
The Antarctic is a landmass: the Arctic is sea ice.
