Difference between Effects of global warming on oceans and Sea level rise

Effects of global warming on oceans vs. Sea level rise

Effects of global warming on oceans provides information on the various effects that global warming has on oceans. A sea level rise is an increase in global mean sea level as a result of an increase in the volume of water in the world’s oceans.

Carbon cycle

The carbon cycle is the biogeochemical cycle by which carbon is exchanged among the biosphere, pedosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere of the Earth.

Glacier

A glacier is a persistent body of dense ice that is constantly moving under its own weight; it forms where the accumulation of snow exceeds its ablation (melting and sublimation) over many years, often centuries.

Post-glacial rebound

Post-glacial rebound (also called isostatic rebound or crustal rebound) is the rise of land masses after the lifting of the huge weight of ice sheets during the last glacial period, which had caused isostatic depression.
