Tapti river does not form any delta at its mouth.

This varies greatly by rank:

Brand new private (E1): $28,800

4-Star General with 38 years of service (General Pace): $224,100

Note that this does not include any benefits or allowances, such as allowances for subsistence (food) and housing that military members receive (and that are non-taxable).

Some examples of lithified sediment are sandstone, shale, and limestone. Sandstone forms from grains of sand compacted together over time, while shale is formed from compacted clay and silt particles. Limestone is made predominantly of calcite that has accumulated and solidified in marine environments.

It was really just southern Burma that was affected.

A ripple tank is a device used to demonstrate and study wave phenomena, such as interference, diffraction, and reflection. It consists of a shallow tray of water with a vibrating source that creates ripples on the surface of the water. By observing the behavior of these ripples, one can better understand wave properties.

The most dangerous fish in the Bering Sea is the Pacific sleeper shark. These sharks are not known to attack humans, but they have powerful jaws and sharp teeth that can potentially cause serious injuries.

If you are quick enough you can get out of the way of it. However no one has yet come up with a way of stopping the earth from making the movements that cause them. The forces are simply too great.

ANSWER: The crust floats on the asthenospheric mantle, which is convecting due to the forces of plate tectonics. The mantle, which extends to a depth of nearly 3,000 kilometers is the source of all magma. The mantle makes up 84% of the earth's volume and can sometimes get as hot as 3700°C. ==== ====

Seawater does not leak into the depths of the Earth because the Earth's crust acts as a barrier preventing water from seeping through. Additionally, the high temperature and pressure in the Earth's mantle would cause seawater to evaporate or be chemically altered before it could reach those depths.

Many plants do. The dandelion is a well known example.

Black sand is formed from volcanic minerals like basalt and lava that have eroded over time. As volcanic rocks break down, they create tiny black grains that make up black sand beaches along the Pacific coast. These beaches are common in areas with active or historic volcanic activity.

The average sea temperature is 28 degrees C

9/10ths of the iceberg is typically underwater.

Another name for mermaid is aphrodites spawn water spirits water babies sea nymphs and of course merfolk!!

Erosion occurs on the inside of a meander as the faster-flowing water erodes and undercuts the bank, resulting in the formation of a cut bank. This erosion contributes to the widening and deepening of the meander loop over time.

The place in the Earth where the earthquake actually occurs is known as the focus or hypocenter. This is the point deep within the Earth where the seismic energy is first released, leading to the generation of seismic waves.

Pillar coral is a filter feeder, meaning it gets its nutrition from tiny organisms in the water, such as zooplankton and phytoplankton. It uses its tentacles to capture and consume these small organisms.

Rock samples of the ocean floor can be acquired through various methods such as deep-sea drilling or collecting samples using submersibles or remotely operated vehicles. Scientists also study samples brought up during underwater volcanic eruptions or through natural processes like landslides and fault movements. These samples provide valuable insights into the composition and history of the oceanic crust.

An area where a river meets an ocean is called an estuary. Estuaries are extremely fertile because they receive a mix of fresh water from the river and salt water from the ocean, creating a unique environment that supports a diverse range of plant and animal species.

A rocktype formed by the flowing or intrusion of lava or magma into water, ice, or water-saturated sediment, and its granulation or shattering into small angular fragments. The process is often driven by contact steam explosivity, cooling processes or mass movement. The sediment consists of hyaline shards of rapid solidified magma and volcanic clasts which are bound together with a glassy or feltlike matrix with the same composition as the clast. They are observed at all types of submarine volcanism (like mid-ocean ridges or seamounts).

Because the Oceans spread their weight out evenly over the Earth, and the Crust is supported evenly from below by Earth's Mantle, the crust cannot "go" anywhere. True, it will compress somewhat from the weight of the oceans, but the oceans could be of any given depth (even a thousand miles) and the crust would do nothing but stay right where it is.

Rock is heavier than water, so the continents outweigh the oceans by a considerable amount, even though they take up far less area. If the oceans were a couple of miles deeper, they would flood over the continents, but this would have little impact on their position.

Certain Naval battles may have been effected by weather events such as the Spanish Armada of l558 which was wrecked off the coast of Ireland . Typhoons complicated matters in certain engagements in World war II. The modern cases are rare due to modern communications devices and evasive capacity of modern ships, unknown in say, Elizabethan times.

Seaweed protists are photosynthetic organisms that contain chlorophyll and other pigments to perform photosynthesis. They are multicellular and live in aquatic environments like oceans and seas. Seaweed protists provide important habitats and food sources for marine life.

Red tides are often caused by the rapid growth of certain species of algae called dinoflagellates, particularly the genus Karenia. These algae produce toxins that can harm marine life and humans if ingested. Red tides can negatively impact marine ecosystems and fisheries.
