It has caused many of the icebergs to floating in the Arctic Ocean. Due to this increase in temperature, large portions of Antarctic ice have been separated from the rest of the polar body, thereby reducing the size of the frozen continent (David & Cambria, p. 24). Thus, the transgressions and regressions of the sea tectonics lead to a rise in sea level.
