The heat from warm river waters draining into the Arctic Ocean is contributing to the melting of Arctic sea ice each summer, a n

ew NASA study finds.
A research team led by Son Nghiem of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., used satellite data to measure the surface temperature of the waters discharging from a Canadian river into the icy Beaufort Sea during the summer of 2012. They observed a sudden influx of warm river waters into the sea that rapidly warmed the surface layers of the ocean, enhancing the melting of sea ice. A paper describing the study is now published online in the journal Geophysical Research Letters.

TuvIf you start at the equator and travel to 10° N, approximately how many kilometers (or miles) north of the equator will you b
Darya [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall divide the circumference into 360 . That will give us the value of distance covered for each  degree along latitude .

1°N = 40000 / 360

= 111.11 km

10° N= 111.11 x 10

= 1111.11 km

TRUE OR FALSE........Aerosols (soot &amp; sulfate particles) actually decrease warming – but they are washed out of atmosphere,
Yuri [45]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Aerosol are generally tiny particles suspended in the atmosphere. These can both be solid or liquid particles. These aerosols can either reflect or absorb sunlight depending on its properties, but most of the aerosols are "cool" type of aerosol. So, these aerosols generally decrease the overall temperature and work as an important counterbalance of the global warming caused by the greenhouse gases. These aerosols can also change the air circulation patterns by changing the temperatures by differential rate of sunlight absorption. Carbon aerosols like Soot are opposite to this nature. These absorbs the sunlight and make the atmosphere hotter.

At high concentrations these micrometer sized particles can be very much harmful for humans. Air pollutants produced from the burning of the fossil fuels causes approximately 5.5 million deaths worldwide.

So the answer will be false.
