  1. Wrong! Water is the only well known substance behaving this way... in the last 10 to 20 other anomaly behaving substances have been discoverd (I think it was about 3 or 4 other ones).

    interesting, hint/link?

    What happens if the ice melts?

    It's already melting.

    Ye I know that, but what really surprised me is thinking how the complete melting of the north pole and of the sea-side part of the south pole wouldn t affect the sea level at any time. The biggest concerns about pole s melting is about the north pole which seems to be more affected. Afaik there is no big concern, temperature misbehaving in the south pole, and i clearly remember some docu showing the north pole ice-pack area statitics and then showing how this would affect the sea levels (i even remember my venice going underwater together with amsterdam..)

    --I am not against or pro any theory, i am just trying to understand, and i am also very skeptical about any kind of mass media covered info--

    ok, that s the thickness of the "sea-side" antarctica, the "land-side" has to be thicker

    About 98% of Antarctica is covered by the Antarctic ice sheet, a sheet of ice averaging at least 1.6 kilometres (1.0 mi) thick. The continent has about 90% of the world's ice (and thereby about 70% of the world's fresh water). If all of this ice were melted, sea levels would rise about 60 metres (200 ft).[19]

    adios, Venezia

  3. If it's floating a good bit of it is over the water level atm. So melting is like actually dropping it in the water ;)

    ice floats cause its specific weight is lower then water, water is the only substance that increases its volume when in  solid state. The "over the surface" portion of ice represents exactly the extra volume increased by the solidifying event.

     

    Oh, but I guess that would all be redundant considering that the south pole is ontop of a landmass....

    Antarctic ice doesn t go over 1m depth, water covered surface of earth is

    510,072,000 km², southern summer-ice pack surface is around 5,000,000, that makes 1cm of sea level increase in a really disastrous event.
