Commonly with excessive incubation humidity the chicks will die having broken through the shell in one place (âpippedâ) either through weakness because of the lack of air to breathe in the shell or because of lack of space to turn and cut around the shell with their bill.
the tropics meanwhile are seeing extra sea level rise thanks to a strange gravitational effect as high latitude ice melts there is less mass at the poles to pull ocean water towards them instead the water slopes more towards the equator no matter which way you look at it the result is cause for concern
Global mean sea level (MSL) has been rising since the end of the last ice age almost 18,000 years ago. Measures of sea level refer to the level of the ocean's surface halfway between high and low tide (to find out more about how sea level is measured, see our links below).
