Best Answer

Warm water can disrupt ecosystems:

  • by killing fish which are acclimatized to cooler water (this is the same reason that pet shops tell you to slowly introduce new fish into your tank by adjusting the water temperature
  • by encouraging the growth of warm water organisms (bacteria, trash fish and weeds)
  • by reducing the dissolved oxygen content f the water
  • by dissolving more pollutants into the water
  • by making chemical pollutants more active

What happens when warm waters meets cold wind?

When warm water meets cold wind two distinct weather patterns can occur. First the water can cool the air creating a decrease in temperature. In this case the air is cooled by the evaporation of the warm water and the wind carries it away. Second the wind can act as a barrier preventing the warm water from cooling the air. The warm water is trapped by the cold wind causing a rise in temperature. In the first case warm water cools the air creating a decrease in temperature. In the second case the wind acts as a barrier trapping the warm water and causing a rise in temperature.
