wow, I didn't know about those volcanoes, thank you for the input!
you're welcome.
I'd guess that a few thousand miles of volcanoes erupting underwater would warm it up some?
but wait...there's more..
also under the part of antarctic that's melting.
Last best guess is there are about 4 MILLION volcanoes on the ocean floor...kinda like...you know...Hawaii?
Hawaii is a special case...it's a 'hot spot'...not on the ocean ridge. The mid ocean ridge circles the planet like the seams of a baseball. forty THOUSAND miles...part of it's called 'the ring of fire'...
wonder why?
excellent work. most have never heard of this.
