Thanks for the heads up! This test has been really stubborn with the whole uploading thing... it's fixed now

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
I'm posting here to remind myself to write up a couple of tests based on what I've seen this year. If I still haven't uploaded something by the end of the week, someone please yell at me to get to work 
EDIT: So, just posting here was pretty much the motivation I needed. I wrote the test today, but creating the answer key is one pigeon of a tedious task. I'll be done soon

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
Does anyone know how much sea level would rise if all the glaciers in the world today melted?
It was in our regionals exam, and I couldn't find a single solid answer on the internet.

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
I have seen ~120 feet on many sites, however this is not constant, but I don't think it would be right for a test to ask for a specific number unless one had been agreed upon by the hydrology/glaciology community.appledough wrote:Does anyone know how much sea level would rise if all the glaciers in the world today melted?

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
With questions like these, test proctors should accept any answer within a reasonable range.

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
The accepted value is 70 m, as far as I have seen.
As for periglacial processes, I have only seen questions related to permafrost thus far. Not to say other questions may not come up, but that is what I have seen so far.

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
I've seen at least 7-10 questions (Invitationals and regionals) but they weren't exceptionally difficult...such as definition-of-a-term and name-the-picture kinds of questions. My partner and I came across gelifluction, pingos, taliks, and talus slope.

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
I just posted the Frankenmuth Invitational Dynamic Planet test on the test exchange, hopefully it is helpful.
