What else can I help you with?
Can ocean currents travel over land?
Only when the oceans flood the land.
The Moon's gravitational pulls affects on what?
The Moon (and the Sun) cause the flood and ebb of the oceans' tides.
What would a flood have to do with global warming?
The glaciers melt due to the warmer air, causing there to be more water in the oceans. The oceans can't hold it so it floods
What is the land next to oceans or shores of lakes or rivers called?
River bank, flood plain, water meadow.
How does a flood get to earth?
The amount of water on Earth is finite - most of it is held in the oceans. For a flood to occur, it has to rain; for it to rain, the water in the oceans has to evaporate to form clouds. Floods can occur in limited regions when the rainfall is much greater than normal, but the water soon runs off, back into the ocean. Of course, it would not be possible for a flood to cover the entire earth, both because there is not enough water and because the floodwaters would run back into the oceans so quickly.
Why is most likely occur as the ice caps melt?
The oceans will rise and areas along the coast will flood. Animals will lose habitat.
What is The process of the oceans water slowly rising to reach high tide is called?
Flood tide is when the ocean's water slowly rises to reach high tide.
Why doesn't the rain that falls on oceans flood them?
Because the sun evaporates the water from the ocean all day. Most if the water that falls as rain came from the ocean to begin with.
The great flood was described as?
Various descriptions and terms have been used to describe the great flood. It has been called variously, 'the Flood of Noah', 'Noah's Flood', 'The Deluge', a 'Cataclysm', or simply 'The Flood' as distinct from any particular local flood. Interestingly, the Hebrew word 'mabul' also makes this distinction in that it is a word which includes all of the above meanings, as distinct from any local flood, no matter how great and devastating.
What was Poseidon responsible for?
Poseidon was in charge of seas, oceans and other water bodies, and earthquakes.
Where do flood waters go?
Eventually, most floodwaters find their way to the seas and oceans. Some of the floodwaters replenish underground aquifers and supplies, such as the Great Artesian basin in Australia.
What are the effects of floods with the oceans?
Floods can introduce excess freshwater and sediment into the oceans, leading to changes in salinity levels, decreased water clarity, and disruption to marine ecosystems. This can impact marine life by altering habitats, damaging coral reefs, and affecting the distribution of species. Floods can also introduce pollutants and debris into the oceans, further endangering marine organisms.
