Temperatures have risen nearly five times as rapidly on the Western Antarctic Peninsula than the global average over the past five decades. Researchers have now found that melting glaciers are causing a loss of species diversity among benthos in the coastal waters off the Antarctic Peninsula, Impacting an entire seafloor ecosystem. They Believe increased levels of suspended sediment in water to be the cause of the dwindling biodiversity in the coastal region.

On the basis of the above passage, the following assumptions have been Made :

Regions of glaciers warm faster than other regions due to global warming.

Global warming can lead to seafloor sedimentation in some areas.

Melting glaciers can reduce marine biodiversity in some areas.

Which of the above assumptions is/are valid?
