An increase in carbon in the atmosphere would likely be due to increased carbon dioxide gas resulting mainly from the burning of fossil fuels plus deforestation results in global warming. Global warming is causing glaciers to melt including both alpine glaciers like those in BC Canada and also continental glaciers like the ones in say, Greenland and Antarctica.The melting of glaciers will cause a rise in sea levels which can result in low-lying areas like the coast of North Carolina being inundated.

The overall objective of the Water Bodies of National Importance project is to ensure appropriate recognition and protection of nationally important values in the management of New Zealand's water bodies. Water bodies include lakes, rivers, groundwater aquifers and wetlands. As an initial step, methods were trialled to create separate lists of potential water bodies of national importance for irrigation, energy generation, tourism, recreation, industrial and domestic use, and natural heritage. In addition, a method has been developed to enable identification of potential water bodies of national importance for cultural and historic heritage.
Subtropical waters are typically more saline than equatorial waters because of the bigger temperature and much lower precipitation.
The precipitation manages to lower the salinity on the surface of the water even create ''pools'' with fresh water in the middle of the saline water. In the equatorial region there's rain almost every day, so the salinity is lower, while in the subtropical regions there's seasonal rain and it is in much lower amount, the temperature is higher which makes the water evaporate more and the salt to be more concentrated, thus the higher salinity.
