This causes thermal mixing (upwelling) in shallow water. In deeper water, it can bring nutrient-rich water to the surface and produce algae blooms include the well-known "red tides."

Can a fever cause purple lips?

A fever can indirectly cause purple lips. As your body temperature rises, you start to feel colder and colder. You should have your temperature checked, any fever over 104 can cause seizures.


How does density affect or cause convection?

Density differences in a fluid can drive convection because colder, denser fluid sinks while warmer, less dense fluid rises. This creates a continuous cycle where denser fluid displaces lighter fluid, leading to circulation and mixing in the fluid. So, density plays a key role in influencing convection patterns within fluids.


Does warm air grow warm as it rises?

Lol, no it doesn't, ..it gets colder as it rises.


When the sea level rises does it get colder or warmer?

colder because it is caused by the ice caps melting


What happens when the temperature rises in a river and falls?

get colder


Does warmer water rise or fall in cold water?

Warmer water rises in colder water. When heated, water expands and becomes less dense, causing it to rise and displace the colder, denser water. This movement of warm water rising and cold water sinking forms a process known as convection.


How is temperature responsible for wind?

Air is warmed by the sun, especially near the equator, and becomes less dense. Therefore it rises, and creates an area of lower pressure where it left the Earth's surface. Colder, denser air rushes in to equalise that pressure difference, and that is wind.


Why does air pressure usually goes up when the weather gets colder?

Air pressure typically rises when the weather gets colder because colder air is denser than warmer air. As the temperature drops, air molecules move closer together, increasing the weight of the air above and thus raising the atmospheric pressure. Additionally, colder air can hold less moisture, leading to clearer skies and more stable weather, which further contributes to higher pressure.


Does the planet's surface heat evenly?

no, the uneven heating is what causes wind. some of the air is heated faster and thus rises and the colder, lower air moves in to take its place


Why is shallow water thermocline in polar and temperate seas seasonal?

Seasonal changes in air temperature cause surface waters to cool and warm, which disrupts the stable thermal stratification in shallow water resulting in the seasonal thermocline formation in polar and temperate seas. This process occurs as colder, denser water from the surface sinks and warmer water rises, leading to the formation of the thermocline layer.


Cool air moving to take the place of warm rising air is known as what?

This process is known as convection. It occurs when warmer, less dense air rises and is replaced by cooler, denser air moving in to take its place.


Does cool air sink while warm air rises?

yes the cool denser air sink while the warm less dense rises
