WHAT DOES CLIMATE CHANGE OR GLOBAL WARMING HAVE TO DO WITH THE INCREASE IN VOLUME OF THE EARTH'S OCEANS?

Geography

Lady_Fox [76]3 years ago

Answer:

The causes of global sea level rise can be roughly split into three categories:

1. thermal expansion of sea water as it warms up,

2. melting of land ice and

3 changes in the amount of water stored on land.

2 New York, New York. via STA Tours.

3 Honolulu, Hawaii. via TravelZoo.

4 Port Royal, Jamaica. via NatGeo.

5 Hoboken, New Jersey.

6 Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

7 Underwater: Thonis-Heracleion.

8 San Diego, California.

9 Miami, Flordia

When sea levels rise as rapidly as they have been, even a small increase can have devastating effects on coastal habitats farther inland, it can cause destructive erosion, wetland flooding, aquifer and agricultural soil contamination with salt, and lost habitat for fish, birds, and plants.

Higher sea levels are coinciding with more dangerous hurricanes and typhoons that move more slowly and drop more rain, contributing to more powerful storm surges that can strip away everything in their path. One study found that between 1963 and 2012, almost half of all deaths from Atlantic hurricanes were caused by storm surges.

Already, flooding in low-lying coastal areas is forcing people to migrate to higher ground, and millions more are vulnerable from flood risk and other climate change effects. The prospect of higher coastal water levels threatens basic services such as Internet access.

                MORE FACTS BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Sea Level rise impacts the salinity levels, making it higher, KILLING ANIMALS! Doesn't that make you feel guilty?

Hope this Helped...

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Yuki was curious if \triangle ABC△ABCtriangle, A, B, C was congruent to \triangle FED△FEDtriangle, F, E, D, so she tried to map one triangle onto the other using transformations: Yuki concluded: "It's not possible to map \triangle ABC△ABCtriangle, A, B, C onto \triangle FED△FEDtriangle, F, E, D using a sequence of rigid transformations, so the triangles are not congruent." What error did Yuki make in her conclusion?
