What is located in midocean ridges?
At mid-ocean ridges, tectonic plates are moving apart, creating new oceanic crust through volcanic activity. This results in the formation of underwater mountain chains and hydrothermal vents, which support unique ecosystems due to the high temperatures and mineral-rich waters.
What do you do when a vessel capsized?
When on any boat you should always be wearing a life preserver vest. The first thing after a board capsizes is to seek the waters surface. There may be an air pocket that forms inside the overturned hull that will let you get your bearings as to where you are and how to best get to the waters surface. Stay calm and do not panic if at all possible.
Does erosion cause sediment for surface waters?
*
Are wind-driven currents near the surface or in the deep waters?
Vertically
Why are upwelling in waters always cold?
Because water at the surface is always warmer than the water at depth. You get used to the temperature of the water surrounding you. When water surges up from the depth, you notice the change in temperature.

What are the surface waters of the earth called?
Surface waters of the Earth are typically referred to as "water bodies" or "water sources," which include oceans, seas, rivers, lakes, and streams. These surface waters play a crucial role in supporting various ecosystems and human activities.
Why are upwelling waters always cold?
they come from the colder waters on the bottom of the oceans
What causes cold nutrient-rich waters to move up to the ocean's surface?

In what season do ponds and lakes turn over?
Ponds and lakes typically undergo turnover in the fall and spring. In the fall, cooling surface waters sink and mix with deeper, oxygen-rich waters. In the spring, warming surface waters mix with cooler, nutrient-rich waters.
Upwelling carries nutrients out of what kind of ocean waters?
Upwelling carries nutrients out of deep ocean waters, which are typically cold and rich in nutrients due to the decomposition of organic matter. This process occurs when deeper waters rise to the surface, often along coastlines or in areas where winds drive surface waters away. As these nutrient-laden waters reach the surface, they support high biological productivity, particularly in marine ecosystems.
