Would building a dam across the Strait of Gilbraltar, prevent rising sea levels in the Mediterranean?
I know that thousands of years ago the Mediterranean was naturally dammed by an ice wall (and as a result it evaporated). Building a man-made dam would be technically feasible and excessive evaporation could be avoided by simply opening the dam now and then. Would it help the countries that have a Mediterranean coastline avoid rising sea levels? Would cutting the hotter Medterranean off from the rest of the world’s oceans would also have a cooling effect on the world’s oceans through oceanic currents?
