Your Class Consequences of Climate Change by YUHANNA MOHAMMAD ISHAM 1G https://padlet.com/yuhanna_mohammad_isham_2020/f1eambfw5q3y Made with serendipity en-us 2018-02-23 01:33:42 UTC 2023-02-28 20:05:35 UTC hello@padlet.com Rise in Sea level- Sandra sandra_tay_sen_li_2020 https://padlet.com/yuhanna_mohammad_isham_2020/f1eambfw5q3y/wish/234553918 There has been a steady increase in the sea levels recorded since the late 1800s till now. The main cause is the higher global temperatures that results in the melting of glaciers and ice caps in greenland and antarctica. Water is no longer held in solid form, being realised as liquid form. Hence this causes rise in sea level. In addition, higher temperatures cause water in seasto expand and this also contributes to the rise.
Glaciers melt and cause a rise in sea level

Social problem
This has a negative impact on places where people live. over 600 million people live in areas less than 10m above sea level. Rising level threaten low-lying areas and island. 2/3 of the world's largest cities are located at coastal areas and are also at risk. 33% of coastal is likely to be lost in the next hundred years if the sea levels continue to rise at this rate.
As seawater reaches farther inland, it can cause destructive erosion,wetland flooding, aquifer and agricultural soil contamination, and lost habitat for fish, birds, and plants.
Clean water would be contaminated as the rising sea crawls farther and farther up the shore, in many places it will seep into the freshwater sources in the ground that many coastal areas rely on for their drinking water. These underground water sources, called aquifers, are crucial springs of freshwater — in fact, groundwater accounts for most of the planet's freshwater.

When water heats up, it expands. About half of the past century's rise in sea level is attributable to warmer oceans simply occupying more space. 

The burning of fossil fuels and other human and natural activities has released enormous amounts of heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere. These emissions have caused the Earth's surface temperature to rise, and the oceans absorb about 80 percent of this additional heat. This also causes glaciers and polar ice caps to melt. Large ice formations, like glaciers and the polar ice caps, naturally melt back a bit each summer.

 In the winter, snows, primarily from evaporated seawater, are generally sufficient to balance out the melting. Recently, though, persistently higher temperatures caused by global warming have led to greater-than-average summer melting as well as diminished snowfall due to later winters and earlier springs. 

This imbalance results in a significant net gain in the ratio of runoff to ocean evaporation, causing sea levels to rise.
The rise of sea level results in destructive erosion, wetland flooding, aquifer and agricultural soil contamination, and lost habitat for fish, birds, and plants. 


When large storms hit land, higher sea levels mean bigger, more powerful storms that can strip away everything in their path.

 In addition, hundreds of millions of people live in areas that will become increasingly vulnerable to flooding. Higher sea levels would force them to abandon their homes and relocate.

When there is an increase in the severity and frequency of tropical storms, there is an increase in heavy rain, strong wind, large storm surges at landfall, and tornadoes. Even well inland, heavy rainfall can lead to mudslides and landslides in mountainous areas. Heavy rain can also cause flooding, leading to the destruction of many properties. When there is strong wind, tall trees tend to collapse and fall, sometimes falling on houses and consequently destroying them.]]> 2018-02-23 02:17:45 UTC https://padlet.com/yuhanna_mohammad_isham_2020/f1eambfw5q3y/wish/234555014 Rise in sea level - Tricia Lee lee_rui_qi_tricia_2020 https://padlet.com/yuhanna_mohammad_isham_2020/f1eambfw5q3y/wish/234555044 A rise in sea level is likely due to melting of glaciers or increased amount of water pollution. The melting of glaciers will cause habitat loss for many animals, and also means that the temperature of the Earth has increased and the rate of Global Warming is increased as well. Water pollution is similar in which there will be less aquatic habitats for animals to live in, and less clean water for humans, animals and plants to survive on. The increased water levels will likely be able to "swallow" some low cities around watered areas, causing them to be wiped off the face of Earth, more natural disasters will occur, such as flooding, and soil erosion will also increase.]]> 2018-02-23 02:17:57 UTC https://padlet.com/yuhanna_mohammad_isham_2020/f1eambfw5q3y/wish/234555044 rise in sea level - preethi preethi_v_prakash_2020 https://padlet.com/yuhanna_mohammad_isham_2020/f1eambfw5q3y/wish/234555053
Sea level rise is usually attributed to global climate change by thermal expansion of the water in the oceans and by melting of ice sheets and glaciers on land. This will affect Polar areas, thus destroying the habitat of arctic animals. The melting of floating ice shelves and icebergs at sea would also raise sea levels by about 4 cm.


Sea level rise factors might include tectonic effects, subsidence of the land, tides, currents, storms, etc. (basically climate change) Sea level rise is expected to continue for centuries. It has been estimated that we are already committed to a sea-level rise within the next 2,000 years of approximately 2.3 metres (7.5 ft) for each degree celsius of temperature rise

As shown in this photo, there's more and more insects nowadays due to the loss of biodiversity and many of the insect predator's like frogs are becoming endangered and some species even extinct. Thus, with less predators there will be more mosquitoes which will result in more insect-borne diseases. Thus, the diseases will spread further and faster in a shorter period of time causing more people to suffer and die from these diseases. ]]> 2018-02-23 02:18:10 UTC https://padlet.com/yuhanna_mohammad_isham_2020/f1eambfw5q3y/wish/234555077 Ruth lee_si_hui_ruth_2020 https://padlet.com/yuhanna_mohammad_isham_2020/f1eambfw5q3y/wish/234555152 Climate change has resulted in decreased air quality, severe weather events, and many other environmental problems. Rising world temperatures are changing local weather events, and warmer weather can give rise to mosquito and insect populations, which spread diseases such as malaria and dengue fever. Changes in diverse environments lead to deviations in incidence and distribution of disease. Escalating temperatures may cause severe weather and extreme heat, resulting in injuries and heat-related illnesses.

Sea levels have been steadily increasing since the late 1800s due to the higher temperatures, causing glaciers to melt ( Greenland and Antarctica ). This meltwater results in a rise in sea level. With a rise in sea level, this affects people's lives negatively as there is lesser land for the population mass.


Consequences:

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

2) When large storms hit land, higher sea levels mean bigger, more powerful storm surges that can strip away everything in their path.

In addition, hundreds of millions of people live in areas that will become increasingly vulnerable to flooding. Higher sea levels would force them to abandon their homes and relocate. Low-lying islands could be submerged completely.

3) It will contaminate our drinking water. As the rising sea crawls farther and farther up the shore, in many places it will seep into the freshwater sources in the ground that many coastal areas rely on for their drinking water. These underground water sources, called aquifers, are crucial springs of freshwater — in fact, groundwater accounts for most of the planet's freshwater. Saltwater is unsafe to drink, and while it is possible to remove the salt from water, doing so is an expensive and complicated process. Some communities are already investing in costly desalination plants in anticipation of hard times ahead. San Diego County in drought-stricken California is building the largest seawater desalination plant in the western hemisphere, and the MIT Technology Review reports that the plant will cost about $1 billion. These kinds of costly projects may be unrealistic for coastal communities on a large scale.

4) It will interfere with farming
Those same freshwater sources we use for drinking also supply the water we use for irrigation. The problems here are the same: The intruding sea could make these groundwater sources saltier. Saltwater can stunt or even kill crops, but creating freshwater from saltwater is a costly and unsustainable practice.

In a twist of irony, recent research has suggested that pumping freshwater from the ground for human use may actually be contributing to a rise in sea levels. After the groundwater has been used — for drinking, irrigation, or other industrial purposes — it is often discarded into the ocean, where it adds to the already-growing volume of water lapping at our shores.

5) It will change our coastal plant life. More saltwater hitting our shores will change the chemistry of the soil on the coast, meaning the plant life there will most likely change as well.

Plants are really sensitive to their environments. Air temperature, access to water, and the chemical characteristics of soil are all factors that influence whether a plant can thrive in a given location.

As rising ocean water seeps into the ground, the soil near the coast will become saltier. Some plants will simply be unable to cope with the change in soil salinity and may disappear from the shoreline.

It will threaten wildlife populations
Many forms of wildlife make their home on the beach. As the rising ocean erodes the shoreline and floods the areas in which coastal animals live, animals like shorebirds and sea turtles will suffer.

Their delicate nests may be swept away by flooding, an especially big problem for endangered animals like sea turtles that can't afford to lose any offspring. Their habitats may be so damaged by flooding or changes in the surrounding plant life that they can no longer survive in the environment.

6) It will hurt the economy
The tourism and real-estate industries in coastal areas are likely to take a hit as prime beachfront properties and recreational areas are washed away by rising waters. This is a fact that some involved in these industries are finding hard to swallow.

North Carolina is a prime example of the conflict between climate science and economic interests. Several years ago, a team of North Carolina scientists published a report predicting a three-foot increase in sea level by the end of the century — bad news for the popular (and often expensive) North Carolina beaches, which earns them tourist money.

Pressured by economically minded local residents and real-estate stakeholders, the North Carolina government eventually passed a law banning coastal policymakers from using accelerated sea-level rise predictions to make decisions for their communities.

But such laws don't erase the fact that flooded beaches are no attraction for tourists or property buyers who, in the coming years, may see fit to take their business to less vulnerable areas.

Examples:
1) Hundreds of millions displaced within this century (Dasgupta 2009)

2) Coastal erosion in Nigeria (Okude 2006)

Storm-triggered landslides cause loss of life, property damage, and landscape alterations.Typhoons,hurricanes and intensive rain all trigger soil erosion and causes in to be unstable,causing a landslide.For instance, the remnants of Hurricane Camille in 1969 caused 109 deaths in central Virginia, after 600 mm of rain fell in mountainous terrain in 6 hours.

These emissions have caused the Earth's surface temperature to rise, and the oceans absorb about 80 percent of this additional heat.

Causes:
There are three main factors contributing to the rise in sea levels:
  1. Thermal Expansion: When water heats up, it expands.
  2. Melting Glaciers and Polar Ice Caps: Higher temperatures have led to greater melting of glaciers and polar ice caps as well as diminished snowfall due to later winters and earlier springs. This imbalance results in a significant net gain in the ratio of runoff to ocean evaporation, causing sea levels to rise.
  3. Ice Loss from Greenland and West Antarctica: Increased heat is causing the massive ice sheets that cover Greenland and Antarctica to melt at an accelerated pace. Meltwater from above and seawater from below is seeping beneath Greenland's and West Antarctica's ice sheets, lubricating ice streams and causing them to move more quickly into the sea. 

Consequences:
  1. Loss of coastal habitats: As seawater reaches farther inland, it can cause destructive erosion, wetland flooding, aquifer and agricultural soil contamination, and damages habitat for fish, birds, and plants.
  2. Larger and More Frequent Storms: Higher sea levels mean bigger, more powerful storm surges that can strip away everything in their path.
  3. Floods: Residential areas will become increasingly vulnerable to flooding. Higher sea levels would force people to abandon their homes and relocate. Low-lying islands could be submerged completely.
