The further down you go, the colder it gets. This is due to a lack of sunlight as depth increases.

Why does solubility of alum in water change with temperature?
The water molecules spread out as temperature increases, which allows the alum to dissolve more readily. Conversely, as temperature decreases, the water molecules become more compact which causes the alum to be less soluble.
What happens to the solubility of gases with the increase in temperature?
solubility generally increases with a temperature increase
Does calcium chloride affect the temperature of water?
Yes, calcium chloride increases the temperature of water.
How does the solubility of a substance change with a rise in temperature?
With a rise of temperature, the solubility increases
What happens to the solubility of a solid in water as the temperature increases?
Although the solubility of most substances increases with temperature (eg you can dissolve more sugar in water when it is hot than you can in the same amount of water when it is cold) with gases the solubility decreases with temperature, so that cold water will hold more gas than the same amount of hot water. As oxygen is a gas its solubility decreases as the water temperature increases.
Does the temperature of water decrease or increase with depth?
The shallower the water is, the warmer it can be. Direct sunlight will warm the water and as the water deepens, the warmth from the sun cannot reach as far. This creates a slightly colder temperature.
How do you convert water psi to water temperature?
Not directly you cant, but sea temperature does decrease with depth, although its not a straight line graph ( though depth : pressure is.)
Why does the temperature in the thermocline decrease with depth?
The sun can't reach the thermocline layer to heat that depth of water
Why does solubility of alum in water change with temperature?
The water molecules spread out as temperature increases, which allows the alum to dissolve more readily. Conversely, as temperature decreases, the water molecules become more compact which causes the alum to be less soluble.
Why does the temperature in the thermocline decrease quickly in depth?
The sun can't reach the thermocline layer to heat that depth of water
When an ocean's depth increases does the temperature increase or decrease?
In general, the answer is the water gets colder as you go deeper. But, there are exceptions. For example, at the Galapagos Rift there are intensely hot (hundreds of degrees) springs at depths of almost two miles.
How does water pressure vary with depth?
Water pressure increases as depth increases.
How do temperature and salinity relate to deep-current movement?
The density of the water increases with the salinity, so saline water is denser and sinks to the bottom. Temperature is also a factor, however. Cold, saline water is the densest
Does the speed of sound increase of decrease or remain the same when air temperature increases?
decrease because when temperature is low water is present in atmosphere which let sound to go fast
How is deforestation of shorelines a cause of thermal pollution?
­The decrease in vegetation increases the amount of light that hits the water, which increases the temperature of the water ­Deforestation also increases erosion ­Erosion makes the water muddy, which increases the light absorbed
When water temperature increases what will the dissolved oxygen content do?
The amount of dissolved oxygen decreases when water temperature increases. Warm water is unable to dissolve as much oxygen gas.
True or false pressure increases as depth increases?
Yes, pressure does increase as your depth increases in the water
