Explore Alaska! - Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems: Module IX - Ice Sages

http://alaskaculturesgeosciences.blogspot.com/2010/03/module-ix-part-iii-ice-sages.html

Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems. Thursday, November 25, 2010. Module IX - Ice Sages. Imagine a mountain valley catching the moisture that falls within its boundaries and funnels it down into a lake sprawling across a low lying area. When the precipitation exceeds the capacity of the lake, it spills over into a river that flows down toward sea-level. Sounds reasonable and familiar. We've all seen it. When the lake of ice (ice field) fills to overflowing, the plastic. Whether indi...

Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems. Wednesday, November 24, 2010. Module IX - Sea Level. Glacier Ice- Sea Level. It is estimated that sea-level could rise as much as 80 meters. If all land ice melted and returned to the sea. How would you estimate the distribution of glaciers effects:. If all of Alaska's glaciers melted, sea level would rise meters. If all of Greenland's glaciers melted, sea level would rise meters. If all of Antarctica's glaciers melted, sea level would rise meters.

Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems. Monday, November 29, 2010. Module IX - Terrestrial Cryosphere Introduction. How are climate, terrestrial ice and Alaskan indigenous cultures all connected? Changes in temperature along with changes in latitude, altitude, precipitation and the different heat capacities of land and water all interact to create the dynamic realm of terrestrial ice; glaciers, permafrost, rivers and lakes. Besides the science of how these complex systems interact, thi...
