The concentration of Saline [solution] at depth depends upon, for one thing, the degree of presence of [newly introduced in this case] fresh Water.
What else can I help you with?
What will happen to salinity if the depth of the ocean increases?
There are a number of things that could happen to the salinity of an ocean if it's depth increased. The salinity would likely also increase.
What is salinity and how does salinity change with depth?
Salinity refers to the concentration of salt in water. Salinity typically increases with depth in oceans due to the processes of evaporation and freezing which leave behind salt in the water, as well as the mixing of water masses within the ocean.
What are some physical characteristics of the ocean?
Depth, salinity, currents, waves, and brightness.
A zone in which the ocean's salinity increases rapidly with increasing depth is called?
halocline
How would salinity change if some ocean water evaporated?
Salinity is increased.
What is the salinity of the thermocline?
The salinity of the thermocline varies depending on the region and depth of the ocean. Generally, it can range from about 33 to 37 parts per thousand (ppt), but it is influenced by factors such as freshwater input from rivers, precipitation, and evaporation. In the thermocline, salinity can also change with depth, as warmer surface waters may have different salinity levels compared to deeper, cooler waters. Overall, the thermocline is characterized by a rapid change in temperature and can show varying salinity profiles depending on local conditions.
What are abiotic factors for the ocean?
tide temperature salinity depth and and i cannot think of the fifth
Why does the salinity change at the point where a river enters the ocean?
Because the ocean is saltwater
What is the range of ocean temperatures?
Depends on which ocean, where it is located (polar or tropical), what currents are prevalent in the ocean, the climatic (seasonal) variation, the depth of the ocean, the depth of monitoring as well as the salinity of the ocean in question. There are probably a few more variables, as you can see this is a complex dynamic.
How do temperature and salinity relate to deep-current movement?
The density of the water increases with the salinity, so saline water is denser and sinks to the bottom. Temperature is also a factor, however. Cold, saline water is the densest
What would happen if salinity levels were drastically changed?
The life in the ocean would change and so would the gravity in the ocean. Therefore salinity is very important.
What is the range of temperatures?
Depends on which ocean, where it is located (polar or tropical), what currents are prevalent in the ocean, the climatic (seasonal) variation, the depth of the ocean, the depth of monitoring as well as the salinity of the ocean in question. There are probably a few more variables, as you can see this is a complex dynamic.
