The bottom of the ocean is colder. The sun heats the top of the ocean first and then heats lower. In a nutshell, the top of the ocean is warmer and the deeper you go the colder.

∙ 14y agoAt the bottom of the ocean I would expect to fin sunken boats, thousand of ocean animals. I would expect to find darkness under there and for it to be very cold.

How does bathyscaphe work?
The bathyscaphe works by turning on its engine and it dives into the water and a lot of air is trapped inside it so it swims to the bottom of the sea/ocean. The pressure at the bottom of the sea/ocean is enough to squish a human.
What is Sonar Mapping?
Sonar mapping uses sound waves to map out the contours or the shape of the ocean bottom. Sonar is an acronym for Sound Navigation Ranging. Typically, a pulse of sound is generated using a kind of underwater loudspeaker towed behind a boat. The pulse of sound, or "ping," spreads out through the water and is reflected back again by objects in the water, such as the ocean bottom, a fish, or a submarine. Underwater microphones measure the reflected sound. The time that it takes the echo to return is roughly proportional to the distance to the reflecting object. Like an echo in the air. Measuring the distance to a single object is relatively easy because it returns a simple echo. Making a map of the ocean floor is much more difficult because sound reflects back from many directions, from hills and valleys in the ocean floor. Complicated mathematics is needed to calculate a map of the ocean bottom.
Which is the best description of a strike-slip fault?
A fault that forms at a transform boundary

What are slimy deposits at the bottom of the ocean?
The bottom of the ocean that is slimy is called a biogenous bottom. Some scientists refer to this kind of ocean bottom as an ooze. They are the result of a dominance of calcium shells and siliceous shell pieces which dissolve at the bottom of the ocean.
What weather is on the ocean?
The weather in the ocean is different at certain depth's. At the very bottom, it is burning hot. The top of the ocean is as cold as it could get. Most sea animals like/have to live near a heat source, so they stay at the bottom.
When was Ocean Bottom Nightmare created?
Ocean Bottom Nightmare was created in 2007.
