SCIE114-
According to Naval Post Graduate Students

Warm water, under the Pine Island
Glacier, is causing ice to melt at a
rate of 2.4 inches per day
CAUSES OF
RISING SEA
LEVELS
• Melted
ice (
water )
flows
into the
ocean
• Warm
water
temperatu
res cause
water to
expand
EFFECTS OF
RISING SEA
LEVELS
•
•
•
•
•

Destructive Erosion
Flooding of Wetlands
Contamination
Lost Habitat for Fish, Birds and Plants
Powerful Storms
WARM SEA
TEMPERATUR
ES CAN
CAUSE
DISEASE
Sensors drilled
into the Pine
Island Glacier
to measure
ocean
temperature,
salinity and
movement of
warm water
currents
We must reduce
green house gases
in order to reduce
global warming and
high ocean
temperatures
