What is a source of most water that evaporates from earths surface?
This source is ocean waters.
Where do whale sharks live?
Whale sharks live in all seas that are tropical or warm-temperate.Generally whale sharks range no further south than South America and no further north than the United States. They prefer warmer waters near the equator.== Whale sharks live in warm waters near the equator, both along the coast and in the open seas. They spend most of their time near the surface.
What habitats do Hawaiian green turtles live in?
they spend most of their time in coastal, shallow waters with lush seagrass beds
What ocean do comb jelly live?
Ctenophores are found in most marine environments: from polar waters to the tropics; near coasts and in mid-ocean; from the surface waters to the ocean depths.
When does a surface reflect lights most clearly?
A surface will reflect light most clearly when that surface is completely smooth. Example of clear reflection: Look at the reflection on a lake when there is no wind or anything causing ripples or waves. The reflection is clear and objects reflected can be seen clearly. Example of distorted (unclear) reflection: Look at the same lake on a very windy day when there are many waves and other ripples on the waters surface. The reflections coming off the waters surface are hard or imposable to see due to the distortion of the reflection.
Why do many scientists consider groundwater pollution a greater problem than surface water pollution?
Well if the source of the water or source of most water which comes from the ground is polluted than the surface waters will be polluted
Who was the most reasonable person that saw Bigfoot?
There have been thousands of normal, reasonable people that have seen this elusive creatur. I'm sure there have been faked sightings but there are many that make it hard to dismiss this as a hoax.
What is water turning over related to fishing?
== == "Turning Over" refers to the phenomena when the warm surface water (which is Oxygen Poor) is driven downward (usually by a cold hard rain after a long drought) and the colder oxygen rich waters are forced closer to the surface. Fish instinctually move to lower water depths to find more oxygen, and when the water has turned over, they find oxygen poor waters and can die of asphyxiation. Turnover does in fact refer to a mixing of warm surface waters and cold bottom waters, but actually, it is the surface waters that are oxygen rich, and bottom waters which are oxygen poor. In a lake, for example over the course of a long summer, sunlight will penetrate the surface waters, resulting in natural production of algae (phytoplankton). The phytoplankton are responsible for most of the oxygen in a lake. But as the algae becomes more productive, it shades out the lake, preventing sunlight from penetrating deeply. From the surface of the water down to the point where only the tiniest bit of light remains is called the photic zone. It is ONLY in this zone that photosynthesis can occur, and therefore oxygen production. In the bottom waters, where there is no sunlight, there is no photosynthesis and therefore no oxygen production. Furthermore, the sunlight is the only natural source of heat. So the photic zone becomes warmer as the summer goes on, while the bottom waters, which are not sunlit, stay cool. Warmer water is less dense than cold water and so the warm water floats on top of the cold water. This is called thermal stratification. So when there is a cold hard rain at the end of a long summer, the cold rain falls into the surface waters, cooling it down. When surface waters get close enough to the temperature of bottom waters, the water column will become mixed, resulting in turnover. So the short answer to your question is, turnover is NOT related to fishing. LOL.
What does plankton live in cold waters or tropical waters?
The most plankton rich areas in the world are in the icy waters of Antarctica.
What do farmers spend their money on?
Most farmers spend their money on achol or cattle, most of the time they spend it on hookers
Do fish spend most of their time looking for food?
No they do not they spend most of their time sleeping.
Where does algae live in the ocean?
It is mostely found in the oceans surface waters; algae only grows where sunlight can provide energy for it. Most algae occur within the first 50 or so feet of water.
