Oceanography

For the most part it does. There is some salt (brine) that is caught in the water when it freezes, but as the ice ages the brine will drain out.

Submarine canyons are typically found on continental margins, where they cut through the continental slope and descend towards the abyssal plain. They are commonly associated with tectonically active regions or areas with high sediment input from rivers or glaciers.

Eskers are formed by meltwater streams flowing within or beneath glaciers, depositing sediment in long, winding ridges. Kettle lakes are formed when blocks of ice left by retreating glaciers become buried by sediment and eventually melt, creating depressions that fill with water. Both features are common in areas that have experienced glacial activity.

Neap tides are the weakest tides. They occur when the gravitational pull of the sun and moon are perpendicular to each other, resulting in the least difference between high and low tide levels.

With time the Continents continued to separate.Today we know that the Continents are still moving apart from one another.

We know that they move one or 10 centimeters every year.

Since it moves some ocean's get bigger, but some Oceans as the Pacific Ocean gets smaller.

I think they would say that The earth will keep moving apart one another.

Along with ocean's forming is that the land mass was all those continents were connected at one time it was Pangaea

No, nodes and antinodes do not occur in longitudinal waves. Nodes and antinodes are specific points of constructive and destructive interference, which are characteristic of transverse waves, not longitudinal waves. In a longitudinal wave, particles oscillate parallel to the direction of wave propagation, with areas of compression and rarefaction instead of nodes and antinodes.

The three main regions of the ocean floor are the continental margins, the ocean basins, and the mid-ocean ridges. Continental margins are the shallow, submerged edges of continents. Ocean basins are the deeper areas of the ocean floor beyond the continental margins. Mid-ocean ridges are underwater mountain ranges where tectonic plates move apart and magma rises to create new oceanic crust.

The weight of a herbivorous zooplankton can vary depending on the species, but they usually range from a few micrograms to a few milligrams.

Venice is mostly built on low-lying marshy islands, and the sinking of the city is due to a combination of factors like the extraction of groundwater causing land subsidence, natural geological processes, and the impact of climate change causing rising sea levels. High tides and storm surges can also lead to temporary flooding of the city.

Tarquin the Proud ruled Rome from 534 BC- 509 BC, so for 25 years.

No, the pitch (frequency) does not change, but its speed is much greater* because you are using a totally different medium to transmit the sound, some frequencies can carry farther under water than they do in the air and other frequencies (the high frequencies) can't go as far in water. Sound is a wave the lower the wave the farther it can travel, the higher the wave the shorter distance it can go before it loses it's energy by the dampening effect of the medium.

*Mean sound speed in air: 340m/s. In sea-water, about 1500m/s.

The higher the frequency the greater the damping attenuation, on top of the frequency-independent square-law attenuation by distance anyway, in any medium.

oldest and has accumulated over millions of years. The thickness of the sediments can vary depending on factors such as tectonic activity, sediment supply, and water depth.

Humidity is typically low in a continental polar air mass because this air mass originates from high latitudes where the air is cold and dry.

Water, when cold, would sink as would other substances as the molecules in in become less active. The unique exception is when water freezes it rises, due to the molecules lining up to form crystal structures allowing spaces and thus making it act as a floatation device. Without this extraordinary property of water, life, as we know it, would not exist.

Primarily, Sonar, developed from the ASDIC systems used for hunting enemy submarines; and in pursuance of that developed the study of the complex nature of the bodies of salt water that are the oceans.

The next Proxigean Spring Tide is expected to occur on November 4, 2021. This event happens when the moon is closest to the Earth during its full or new moon phases, resulting in higher-than-usual tides.

The average concentration of dissolved CO2 in seawater is around 50 millimoles per cubic meter (mmol/m3), which is equivalent to 1950 parts per million (ppm). However, CO2 concentrations can vary depending on factors such as temperature, salinity, and proximity to CO2 sources.

During a tsunami, the air pressure remains relatively stable as it is primarily caused by the surface of the ocean rising and falling rapidly. However, changes in air pressure can occur due to atmospheric conditions associated with the tsunami, such as strong winds or storm systems.

Yes, as changes in salinty affects the density of sea water, another of putting it would be that a Halocline is simply a region below the surface of a body of water where there is a significant increase or decrease in density.

When rocks bend instead of breaking, it is called ductile deformation. This typically occurs under high pressure and temperature conditions deep within the Earth's crust where rocks are able to deform and flow rather than fracture.

The main culprit of coral bleaching is elevated sea temperatures caused by climate change. When corals are stressed by high temperatures, they expel the algae living in their tissues, causing the coral to turn white and potentially die if the stress is prolonged.

The lithosphere is the subdivision of Earth's geosphere that interfaces directly with the ocean. It is the outer solid part of the Earth, which includes the crust and the upper part of the mantle.

The ocean plays a crucial role in regulating Earth's climate by absorbing and storing carbon dioxide, distributing heat around the globe, and influencing weather patterns through ocean currents. It also provides habitat for countless marine species, produces oxygen through photosynthesis by marine plants, and supports the global water cycle through evaporation and precipitation.
