Answer:

Arctic and the greenland

Explanation:

  • The melting ice is creating an exponential rise in the high tides and the rise in the warming of the planet is leading to the cause of the flow of more water to the coastal lands and the depletion of the freshwater reserves and the also the destruction of the habitats of the marine life.
  • This can inundate or drown the coastal lands and the small islands of the African region, Asia and the all major coastal cities of the world. Creating temperature extremes and water pollution, increase in salinity and destroying the lands wi massive flooding.
  • <u>Impacting ocean circulation and then global sea levels would rise to opt about 7.2 meters activated climate change.</u>

seismograph a records p waves at 6:05 pm and s waves at 6:10 pm. Seismograph b records p waves at 6:10 pm and s waves at 6:25 pm
Mariulka [41]
For seismograph A, the lag time is
5 minutes (difference between 6:10 and 6:05)
For seismograph B, the lag time is
15 minutes (difference between 6:25 and 6:10)

Assuming that earthquake waves have a constant velocity during the earthquake, then the seismograph with the shorter lag time is closer to the epicenter. So,
Seismograph is closes to the earthquake's epicenter
