A Jewfish is a large, predatory fish with a stout body and a large mouth filled with strong teeth. It has a mottled color pattern with shades of brown, gray, and white, often adorned with dark spots or bars. They can grow to be quite large, with some individuals reaching lengths of over 7 feet and weighing several hundred pounds.

About 97% of the Earth's water is salt water found in oceans and seas.

a Latin phrase meaning, approximately, From Sea to Sea. The unofficial motto of Canada by the way. It is often shown on coins and official seals, like E Pluribus Unum (Not EL Pluribus Unum, it"s not Spanish!) in the USA>

North Equatorial flow clockwise and southern counter-clockwise.

Rogue waves can vary in size, but they are typically defined as waves that are substantially larger than the surrounding waves. They can reach heights of 80 feet (24 meters) or more, posing a significant threat to ships and offshore structures. Rogue waves are unpredictable and their exact size can vary depending on the conditions in which they form.

Flotsam is the term used to describe marine debris.

Technically Flotsam only applies to debris accidentally in the ocean (ie; after a shipwreck)

Where as Jetsam mean debris thrown into the ocean by ships crew (usually in light of a emergency

Usually speaking Jetsam is the property of whoever finds it, whilst Flotsam remains the property of its original owner.

The presence of a mid-ocean ridge indicates seafloor spreading, where new oceanic crust is formed as tectonic plates move apart. This process is associated with volcanic activity and can lead to the creation of new ocean basins.

Matthew Maury is remembered as the father of physical oceanography for his extensive work in exploring ocean currents, charts, and measurements. His efforts laid the foundation for modern oceanographic research and understanding of ocean circulation patterns.

The largest bodies of salt water are oceans. These vast bodies of water cover about 71% of the Earth's surface and are connected to each other. The five main oceans are the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern (Antarctic), and Arctic Oceans.

El Niño. It is characterized by warmer-than-average sea surface temperatures and can lead to a variety of weather disruptions around the globe, such as heavy rainfall in some areas and droughts in others.

Natural features on the surface of the earth include mountains, rivers, lakes, deserts, forests, and oceans. These features are formed through natural processes over millions of years and play a crucial role in shaping the environment and supporting various ecosystems.

Nope, not even close. A league is about 3.5 miles. Let's just do three miles times 20,000. That would be 60,000 miles? Well, Mariana Trench is about 6 or 7 miles. So no, it is not deeper than 20,000 leagues

Roughly 97.5% of Earth's water is salt water, found in the oceans, while about 2.5% is fresh water. Most of the fresh water is locked up in ice caps and glaciers, with a small fraction available in rivers, lakes, and groundwater.

Marine biologist, marine scientist, ocean engineer, environmental scientist, and marine conservationist are all similar careers to an oceanographer. These roles involve studying the ocean, its ecosystems, and marine life, as well as analyzing environmental impacts and developing solutions for marine conservation.

Vorticies is the mis-spelling of the word vortices, which is the plural (more than one) form of the word vortex. In physics, a vortex is a three-dimensional, spiral flow of a gas or fluid or plastic or particles. Many open system fluids tend to form such flows, for example, star systems, galaxies, and some sub-atomic particles. So, in weather a funnel cloud (tornado), or a water spout (a tornado over water) or a hurricane (large low-pressure storm system) are examples of vortices. Often conditions are right for the formation of multiple tornado vortices. A small water vortex almost always forms when you suddenly pull the plug out on a bathroom or laundry room or kitchen sink full of water. The water will swirl around as it drains down the drainpipe. (This also happens in older flush toilets that use several gallons of water per flush). There are theories associated about what circular spin--clockwise or counterclockwise--direction the water will tend to go depending on if you are situated in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere of the planet Earth due to the Coriolis effect. In a chemistry lab, there are 1 to 2 inch long magnetic, glass coated rods that are placed within chemical mixing beakers that are then placed upon a speed controlled motor system that magnetically couples with the rod to make it stir the contents of the beaker. If the beaker contains a sufficient fluid level and the stirring motor's speed is set sufficiently high, the fluid mixture in the beaker will spontaneously form a vortex circulating in the direction of the spinning rod. Viktor Schauberger is famous for studying water vortices for applications in industry such as logging using water troughs to transport heavy logs down hills. A Walt Disney movie about a cougar featured such a logging operation, and the cougar caught a ride down the hill on one of the logs travelling down such a trough.

Cyclone is generally the name given to the violent meteorological disturbances that occur in the southern hemisphere. The northern hemisphere terms for cyclones are typhoons (in Asian waters) and hurricanes (in the Americas). No hurricane has ever made landfall on the western coast of USA (including California) in recorded history.

An ocean is a large body of saline water that covers a significant portion of the Earth's surface. It is characterized by its vast size, deep waters, distinct ecosystems, and role in influencing global climate patterns.

About 97% of the Earth's available water is found in oceans as saltwater. This water is too salty for most human purposes and needs to be desalinated for consumption.

No. A sponge is asymmetrical, because it lacks any organised body plan.

Animals with radial body symmetry display a regular arrangement of body parts around a central axis, usually in a circular pattern. jellyfish, for example, have radial body symmetry.

The village in India sinking into the sea is Satabhaya in Odisha. It has been affected by coastal erosion and rising sea levels, leading to significant land loss and forcing residents to relocate.

Approximately 97% of the hydrosphere exists as salt water in the form of oceans and seas.

A mantle plume is a column of hot rock rising from deep within the Earth's mantle to the surface. These plumes can cause volcanic activity and create features like hotspots and mid-ocean ridges. Mantle plumes are thought to be responsible for some of the most significant geological phenomena on Earth.

Yes, seawater expands when frozen into an iceberg because the density of ice is lower than that of liquid water. As the water freezes and forms into ice, it occupies more space, causing it to expand. This expansion is what causes icebergs to float with a portion visible above the water's surface.

The salt content in water is referred to as salinity. It is typically measured in parts per thousand (ppt) or as a percentage.
