The negative effects of nuclear power plants on sea life is very limited as the sea water used for cooling is fully separated from the nuclear fuel. In addition, the regulations require that the sea water temperature rise due to its use for nuclear plants cooling should exceed 5 degrees centigrade. Many swimming beaches are located close to the nuclear power plants sites.
What else can I help you with?
Does sea breeze affect plants?
Yes, sea breezes can affect plants by bringing in cool, moist air which can help to reduce plant stress from hot temperatures. Sea breezes can also help to disperse pollen and seeds, aiding in pollination and dispersal of plant species along coastal areas. However, strong sea breezes may also cause physical damage to plants by breaking branches or causing them to dry out more quickly.
Do crustaceans eat fungi?
They are omnivorous - meaning they eat both plants and other animals.
When did plants first appear on land or sea?
Both. The generally accepted idea is that life first evolved in the sea. Insects, fish with bony fins and rudimentary lungs (adapted air bladders) and plants eventually left the water to colonize land. Life in both realms continued to adapt to their evironments over millions of years to produce the life that we see today.
How did the kobe Earthquake affect the sea life?
The Kobe Earthquake in 1995 caused significant damage to the marine ecosystem, including disruption of habitats, oil spills, and contamination of the sea with debris and chemicals. The earthquake also triggered landslides and underwater movements that affected the sea floor and marine life in the region.
What animals and plants are found in the dead sea?
The Dead Sea is known for its hypersaline water, making it difficult for most plants and animals to survive. However, some species of bacteria, algae like Dunaliella, and a few types of fish such as the Dead Sea minnow (Aphanius dispar) are able to adapt to the extreme conditions of the Dead Sea.
How did the oil spill affect the land?
If oil gets on you it could kill you. Oil can kill all sea life and plants in the ocean.
Why nuclear plants are near sea?
nuclear plants are near sea because harmful radiations can be disposed through underwater and there will not be much population whereas if it is built where there is a high population then it creates air pollution which is a cause of death.
How do mushrooms affect sea life?
they dont
Does the salinity of the ocean affect the color of sea plants?
no, because they are amune to it
How did geography affect life?
Located on the Mediterranean Sea, it led them to sea trade.
If nuclear power was in Australia where would the plants be?
All nuclear power plants (Australian or otherwise) need to be located near a source of cooling water. That means being near a river or lake or sea.
Can power plants and sea life coexist?
power plants and sea life can coexist when humanity can find out how to use the benefits of power plants without risking the natural surrounding out. When they find out how to do this difficult task then will power plants and sea life can exist in harmony
Do seals use plants in Antarctica?
There are no plants in Antarctica. Seals are marine animals and use sea life not land life, to survive.
How does nuclear power harm fish?
The greatest harm to fish from nuclear power, in terms of the numbers of fish killed so far, has been due to thermal pollution. The nuclear power produced at plants is only about 35% turned into electrical power. The remainder is called waste heat. When rivers, lakes, or the sea are heated up, it can kill fish. In some cases this has a profound effect on the species in the water. Nuclear power plants have lost radioactive materials into large bodies of water, harming sea and land life. Possibly the worst such event involved loss of material from the Sellafield plant in the U. K. into the Irish Sea.
What kind of sea life is in oceans?
fish, some mammels and plants
What do you find in the sea?
sea life such as dolphins, whales, fish, sea plants. you may also find litter and ship wrecks
How do hurricanes affect sea life?
yes hurricanes do affect sea life. why? because the winds can blow the water making it murky and unstable. the fish can get lost or the waves accidentally throw fish out of water on to rocks.
