Earth's Systems react in multiple ways. For this question, choose the systems that are working together to create the phenomenon described.
A mountain range blocks rainfall from reaching an area (known as a rain shadow), making it a dry, desert biome
This phenomenon involves and the
The Greenland ice sheet extends 1.7e12 m2, and average 2,100 meter thick. The area of the world oceans is 360e12 m2. Assume ice and water have about the same density. The sea level will rise _____ meter if the Greenland ice sheet is all melted.
The Ocean's level is rising about 1.5 millimeters (mm) per year. At this rate, in how many years will the sea level be 3 m higher than it is now? You must include a SKETCH to solve.
