<u>Climate warming (like of 4°C) would increase the active layer thickness (ALT) of permafrost</u>, which can cause changes in the hydrological cycle, ecological processes, and carbon flux in cold regions.
In the pot of tea the molecules would be moving faster than in the cooled cup of tea. As liquid is heated the atoms vibrate faster which increases the distance between them. When heat leaves a substance, the molecules vibrate slower and get closer.
