The Gulf of Mexico is the #1 breeding area in the world for sharks. It might decrease population of sharks. Many fish will die. Some endangered species will become even rarer, and some species on the edge of endangerment will now be listed on the "Endangered Species List,".

Why the surface layer of water in the poles is colder than the layer just below it yet the colder layer floats on top?

Due to the anamolous behaviour of water, the surface water being cooled by the external environment falls below 4C and begin to expand. when this surface water molecules expand they rise to the top due to a decrease in density as compared to the water below the surface. the cooler the temperature henceforth, the more the expansion of the surface water molecules till it solidifies to become ice. this surface ice then acts as an insulator and prevents the exchange of heat between the environment the water molecules just below it, thus maintaining the temperature of the water below the surface as constant.
