The shallower the water is, the warmer it can be. Direct sunlight will warm the water and as the water deepens, the warmth from the sun cannot reach as far. This creates a slightly colder temperature.

When an ocean's depth increases does the temperature increase or decrease?
In general, the answer is the water gets colder as you go deeper. But, there are exceptions. For example, at the Galapagos Rift there are intensely hot (hundreds of degrees) springs at depths of almost two miles.
When temperature decreases what does the volume of liquid water do increase or decrease?
The volume of water increase under 3,98 oC.
What would make water turn from a liquid to a gas?
You don't decrease the temperature, you raise the water's boiling point, or increase the water's temperature......
What are two ways you could get water that is in a pan to evaporate?
- increase the temperature- decrease the pressure
How does water solubility of NH3 gas become when temperature is halved?
Solubilty of gases in water increase when the temperature decrease, For ammonia you can see an infographics at this link.

How do you convert water psi to water temperature?
Not directly you cant, but sea temperature does decrease with depth, although its not a straight line graph ( though depth : pressure is.)
Why does the temperature in the thermocline decrease with depth?
The sun can't reach the thermocline layer to heat that depth of water
Does the solubility of potassium nitrate in water increase or decrease as the temperature rises?
Increase
Why does the temperature in the thermocline decrease quickly in depth?
The sun can't reach the thermocline layer to heat that depth of water
If you add baking soda to water will the temp of the water increase or decrease?
yes it will slightly increase the temperature
When temperature decreases what does the volume of liquid water do increase or decrease?
The volume of water increase under 3,98 oC.
Which of the following does not increase the rate of dissolving a solid in water?
- a decrease in temperature - an increase of the particles dimensions - lack of stirring
What can an increase in the density of the ocean water?
salt a decrease in temperature and an increasue in salinity
Why would water condense or evaporate?
Water is evaporated when the temperature increase and condensed when the temeperature decrease.
How weather affects evaporation of water from land and sea?
Evaporation increase with the increase of temperature and decrease of pressure..
Does water temperature in the lake decrease as depth increases?
The further down you go, the colder it gets. This is due to a lack of sunlight as depth increases.
