Solutions
This solution is the last resort for people being impacted by sea level rise.
Relocating or moving away
Something that has more energy also has more of this.
Heat
Chemistry is the study of this.
Matter, and how it changes.
Energy is applied to an ice cube and this happens to its mass.
H2O
Communities on the coast are building these to keep water away from their homes and buildings.
Seawalls
Particles do this when they have more energy.
Move faster
M/V equals this.
Density
This property explains why we have warm salty water at the bottom of the ocean.
Density
The compound causing our atmospheric temperature to rise.
CO2
The atmospheric gas that acts as a blanket, warming the Earth.
CO2
Calculate the amount of energy in calories would 100 g of water lose if the water’s temperature decreased by 5℃.
500 calories
The specific heat of water.
1.0
This happens when energy is applied to CO2.
The chemical formula for salt.
The solution that involves reflecting light away from Earth's surface.
Microbeads
In our equation Q represents this.
Heat energy
The word "thermo" means this.
Heat
The most dense type of water.
Cold salty water
This element makes up the majority of our atmosphere.
Nitrogen
The solution that prevents glaciers from melting from below.
Berm
The name of the law that describes how energy is neither created or destroyed.
The Law of Conservation of Energy
The name of the specific glacier we looked at.
Ilulissat Glacier
Between the two
