Describe how ocean surface temperatures change from the northern pacific ocean southward to antarctica?
Ocean surface temperatures generally decrease from the Northern Pacific Ocean southward to Antarctica. In the Northern Pacific, warmer waters are influenced by the North Pacific Current and the Kuroshio Current, which bring warmer temperatures. As one moves southward, particularly past the equator, the waters cool significantly due to the influence of the cold Humboldt Current along the western coast of South America and the Southern Ocean's circumpolar currents. By the time you reach Antarctica, the surface temperatures are among the coldest in the world, often near freezing.
What else can I help you with?
Which hemisphere has the warmest average temperature?
The Southern Hemisphere generally has warmer average temperatures compared to the Northern Hemisphere due to greater amounts of ocean coverage and southward distribution of land masses.
In which direction direction does the Mississippi river flow?
It rises in northern Minnesota and flows southward into the Gulf of Mexico.
What is the only hemisphere where Antarctica has no land?
Antarctica has no land in the northern hemisphere.
In the southern hemisphere the lowest surface air temperature occurs in what month?
The lowest temperatures in the southern hemisphere are during the months that are hottest in the northern hemisphere.May, June, July, August, and September.According to these graphs, the minimum temperatures on Antarctica tend to hit in August.http://www.coolantarctica.com/Antarctica%20fact%20file/antarctica%20environment/climate_graph/vostok_south_pole_mcmurdo.htm
What hemisphere does not include Antarctica?
Antarctica does not exist in the northern hemisphere.
Which continent is not in the western and northern hemisphere?
Asia, Australia, and Antarctica are not in the Northern and Western Hemispheres (together). Separately, Asia is a part of the Northern while Antarctica is a part of the Western.
Which Hemisphere is the only one in Antarctica is not found?
Antarctica has territory in all hemispheres except the northern one.
Is antarctica at the southern or northern end of the earth?
Antarctica is in the Southern Hemisphere, the south pole is found in Antarctica.
Is Antarctica in the US?
No. Antarctica is another continent. Seriously
Why is the hypothetical pattern observed in Antarctica?
The region includes northern Canada, Greenland some parts of Russia and Alaska. This pattern is seen here generally because the temperatures are the same.
Which continent is in the northern and western hemisphere?
Asia, Australia, and Antarctica are not in the Northern and Western Hemispheres (together). Separately, Asia is a part of the Northern while Antarctica is a part of the Western.
What is the only hemisphere in which Antarctica has no land in?
Antarctica has no land in the northern hemisphere.
