sun light is reflacted more by ocean water because the water surface is smooth and shiny.

Which thing can not be dry in sun light?
The ocean
What color is cerulean?
A light blue.Cerulean is a vibrant blue, that I associate with the ocean.
Why is the sky light blue in the day time?
It is the reflection of the sunlight off the ocean water on earth.
What makes the ocean light up at night?
dinoflagellates. They are a species of algae found in marine and freshwater. They are photosynthetic so they are considered ancestors to modern day plants Dinoflagelates contain bioluminescence which are responsible the ocean lighting up at night. They respond to touch so waves, people, or the wind can cause then to 'light up'. This is the same class of algae that is responsible for red tides and paralytic shellfish poisoning.
Why did Apollo 11 land in the Pacific Ocean?
They landed in the pacific ocean as it is a much calmer ocean.
What is the wavelenght of light reflected most from ocean water?
Whatever the color of the substance is, that's the light wave that is reflected most. So the ocean would mostly be green and blue. However black means no light is reflected, so the darker the less reflected.
Where will you find glaciers?
You will find glaciers in the Arctic Ocean.
What is the nearest ocean or body of water to mount Everest?
The nearest body of water or ocean would be the Indian ocean not glaciers.
Where do glaciers go after they move?
ocean
Which of these is an agent of erosion glaciers gravity ocean waves glaciers wind or all of these?
All
Can melting glaciers increase ocean acidity?
No. Melting glaciers add clean fresh water to the oceans, so their melting decreases ocean acidity.
What is a glaciers that floats away in the ocean?
Icebergs are glaciers that typically break off of ice shelves.
What happens when glaciers move?
Dont know actually so please give me the answer :)
Would you sense reflected or emitted electromagnetic radiation when measuring the temperature of the ocean's surface?
If you were to measure reflected radiation then you would be measuring the temperature of the source of light (the sun)! So you need to look at the emmited radiation (measured during the night) to guage the temperature of the ocean's surface.
How can ocean get bigger?
An ocean can become bigger when glaciers start melting (Global Warming does this)
Why does a red fish look black in the ocean greater than water depth of 10 meters?
Has to do with reflected light, its wavelength, and how water effects it. Red light cannot travel as deep in water as green or blue. Therefor, when a red fish goes deeper the needed RED LIGHT cannot reach it and will not be reflected off the fish. SO! It looks black because it is REFLECTING no color. Thats what color is... reflected light.
What has the most water ocean or glaciers?
ocean and glaciers are both water, so it is just a matter of volume. for example, a unit of ocean with a greater volume than a glacier contains more water and vice versa.
