What else can I help you with?
Do earthquakes occur you the ocean?
earth quake in the ocean cause tsunami
What is the cause of surface currents?
The circulation of cold and warm water between the poles and the equator, and the rotation of the earth, cause ocean currents to flow.
What would happen if all of the earth's water stays in the ocean?
The ocean would probably overflow and cause a flood to occur.
How did scientists map the bottom of the ocean?
How scientists map the bottom of the ocean
What is a possible cause that the Atlantic Ocean water is slightly less dense than the average water of any other ocean?
Thermohaline circulation is the process of cold water at the poles creeping along the ocean floor. It meets with north and south polar water creates a dawdling subsurface circulation.
When the sun heats one region in an ocean the movement of the water in the ocean circulates the leat What is the name of this phenomenon?
The phenomenon you are describing is known as ocean circulation or thermohaline circulation. This process is driven by differences in temperature and salinity in the water, which create density variations that cause the water to move. The circulation helps distribute heat across the ocean, influencing climate and weather patterns. A specific component of this is the "ocean conveyor belt," which refers to the large-scale movement of water that connects different ocean basins.
What causes ocean circulation?
I would like to find out what are the causes of ocean circulation. can someone plzz tell mii
The circulation of ocean currents in the Northern Hemisphere is generally?
clockwiseThe circulation of ocean currents in the Southern Hemisphere is generally:counter clockwise
Did the earthquake in japan occur at the same time as the tsunami?
No, the earthquake in the ocean cause the water to make the tsunami
How does Coriolis Effect affect ocean circulation?
the Coriolis Effect affect ocean circulation because weather movement are rotating with the earth.
What is the driving force of deep-ocean circulation?
The driving force of deep-ocean circulation is primarily the sinking of cold, dense water at high latitudes due to its higher density. This process is known as thermohaline circulation, where temperature and salinity differences create variations in water density, causing water masses to sink and drive the global ocean circulation.
Can an earthquake occur in the ocean?
Yes. An earthquake may occur in the ocean.
