What body of water has the lowest density?

What can you infer about the density of the ocean water at the surface in that area right after the storm?

Describe the two steps of upwelling?
Upwelling is water raising from deep in the ocean to the surface. It can be caused by wind ar density currents.
What water temperature increases density of ocean water?
When the ocean water freezes, it increases the salinity. When the ocean water freezes at the surface, ice will float on top of water because ice is less dense than liquid water. The dissolved solids are squeezed out of the ice and enter the liquid water below the ice. This increases the salinity of the water. The density of the water also increases.
What is denser 10 milliliter of water or 50 milliliter of water?
For practical purposes water is not compressible, and thus the density would be the same. However, it is possible you would find the density of water 1 mile deep in the ocean would be higher than the density at the surface.
What is the average density of seawater?
The density of surface seawater ranges from about 1.020 to 1.029 g·cm-3, depending on the temperature and salinityThe average density of seawater at the surface of the ocean is 1.025 g/ml; seawater is denser than freshwater (which reaches a maximum density of 1.000 g/ml at a temperature of 4°C) because of the added mass of the salts.
How would water density compare to ocean water?
The water would have the same density anywhere it is.
Do things rise higher in fresh water than in saltly water?
No, salty water has higher density, that's why it's easier to stay close to surface in sea or ocean.
Why density of ocean water is greater than the density of tap water?

What is the movement of ocean water that is caused by the uneven heating and density of the ocean water?
It is called an ocean current
What current brings cold water to the ocean surface?
An upwelling is a current in the ocean that brings deep, cold water to the ocean surface.
What are density currents?
A density current is where a warm current floats on top of a cold currentA density current is where a warm current floats on top of a cold currentThe movement of a mass of cold, dense ocean water as it sinks beneath warmer surface water.
