oceans are the best.
How and why do temperature and pressure vary with ocean depth?
At sea level,the pressure of the atmosphere pushing down on the ocean surface is reffered to as 1 atmosphere of pressure.An atmosphere is the pressure exerted on a surface at sea level by the column of air above it.As you go below the oceans surface ,the pressure increases because of the force of the water molecules pushing down.
What is the main cause of surface currents in earth's ocean?
I think that the whether that hits the water
Why is air pressure greatest at earthes surface?
Same reason water pressure is the highest at the bottom of the ocean - the amount of stuff above, pushing down.
What do surface currents effect?
For Apex A- The rotation of Earth on its Axis C - The differences in water density D- The temperature of Ocean Water
Are mountains formed when a volcano reaches the surface of the water in an ocean?
i think that mountains form when volcano reaches the surface of the water in an ocean because they first make plates that pull and push and they push until they make a mountain and they never let go of pushing they just keep on going and going.
What current brings cold water to the ocean surface?
An upwelling is a current in the ocean that brings deep, cold water to the ocean surface.
What is the vertical section of the ocean from the surface to the ocean floor referred to as?
This section of the ocean from floor to surface is called the water column.
What type of water is most likely to float on the surface of the ocean?
Ice is a form of water that will float on the surface of the ocean.
Streamlike movements of water at or near the surface of the ocean are called?
Stream like movements of water that occur near the surface of the ocean are called surface currents. Stream like movements of ocean water far below the surface are known as a deep current.
What is the movement of water from the deep ocean to the surface?
Conveyor Belt Cycling describes the movement of the ocean water between surface and deep water.
What ocean makes up twenty percent of the earths water surface?
Indian Ocean covers 20% of water on the earths surface.
