A study published in Science notes that water flowing from the Atlantic Ocean into the Arctic is warmer than it's been in 2,000

years. Scientists believe that this increased heat input has far-reaching consequences to life on Earth. U.S. and European scientists studied the Fram Strait branch of the North Atlantic Current, the ocean current that carries heat north from the tropics. By studying tiny-shelled organisms called foraminifera found deep in the ocean floor, they could chart temperatures going back 2,000 years. From their findings, scientists reported that the water has warmed about 2o C since the late 1800's.
We would expect warmer Northern Atlantic currents to have all BUT ONE of these consequences on Earth.
A) higher sea level
B) increased ice melt
C) decreased precipitation
D) disruption of the Gulf stream

How are coastal dunes and coastal plains similar?
poizon [28]

Answer:

Coastal dunes are a ridge, or a series of ridges, that form at the rear of a beach and differ from most other constructional coastal landforms in that they are formed by the movement of air (aeolian transport) rather than by tidal, wave, or current action.A coastal plain is a flat, low-lying piece of land next to the ocean. Coastal plains are separated from the rest of the interior by nearby landforms, such as mountains. In western South America, a large coastal plain lies between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean.

Which of the following landforms is formed by glaciers
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

In the above question, there are no given options.

But generally, the glaciers are considered to be one of the important factors that lead to the formation of various types of landforms. Some of them include the cirques, U-shaped valleys, aretes, horns, striations, Roche mountains and many more.

The cirques are formed when the water in the high elevated areas are accumulated in the depressions or ponds, forming snow or glaciers.

The U-shaped valleys are one of the most prominent features formed by glacial erosion. As the glaciers move downward, it carves out the valleys in the form of a U-shape.

The glacial striations are also produced when the glaciers carrying the rock particles and other materials move over the land surface.
