1.A serious problem confronts any researcher who looks into the question of tides and sea levels, especially when searching for that elusive concept known as `mean sea level’, (MSL) or “Zero Point of the Sea” (as Captain Sir James Clark Ross, the 19th century British Antarctic explorer, called it [36]). Not only is it difficult to determine true MSL at any one location, it is even more difficult to detect any changes occurring with that level. For example, imagine attempting to measure mean sea level on a Hawaiian surfing beach. Sea level and tides work over longer timescales, but the essence of the problem is much the same. Study of sea level has now taken on a more urgent importance due to the predictions of sea level rise which might result from any global warming resulting from increased emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) [23].

2.They will quite often reach depths of more than 700 feet and remain submerged for up to 18 minutes.

3. A single blue whale requires as much as 4 tons of krill per day to sustain their incredible bulk, so feeding is pretty much an all day and all night affair.

5.AIR temperatures above the entire frozen continent of Antarctica have risen three times faster than the rest of the world during the past 30 years.

The weather balloons from which the data has been collected have been launched daily from many of Antarctica’s research stations since 1957. These balloons carry instrument packages known as radiosondes, which measure temperature, humidity and winds at altitudes of 20km and beyond.

For question number one there is no exact figure that I can find because too many factors play a roll in the scenario.

Make sure you appreciate your answers enough to give a best answer. Whoever gives it to you. We all worked hard on it.

Ok, so each poles are seeing melting ice…however that doesn’t aid the thought of ‘worldwide warming’ as Al Gore and others see it. First of all, how a lot of the ‘greenhouse gases’ are honestly from tailpipes and manufacturing unit chimneys as good as methane from farm animals? Secondly, how a lot does this examine with the BTU’s coming from wooded area fires, volcanic eruptions and geysers? These are happening obviously (i.e. hand of God) and as a consequence, can’t be saved beneath manipulate by way of using our motorcycles to paintings. Thirdly, the whole thing is in transition. Maybe the timing of the melting ice has extra to do with different elements than the Ozone layer reducing. With much less Ozone, there demands to be extra Psalm ninety one safety and that is handiest discovered in 2d Chronicles 7:14 obedience. (that implies, whilst international locations fall on their knees to their Creator, crying for mercy, then mercy will occur. God will heal our lands)
