Desceibe some of the general patterns you observe for temperature and salinity
What else can I help you with?
In general the density of sea water increases as?
salinity increases and temperature decreases....
How do you Summarize the properties (temperature salinity density) you would expect to find at different depths of the ocean?
In general, as you descend deeper into the ocean: temperature decreases, salinity tends to increase due to evaporation and freezing processes, and density rises due to the combined effects of temperature and salinity variations. These properties play a crucial role in shaping the ocean's circulation patterns and influencing marine life distribution.
Describe the salinity of the ocean in terms of the concentration of salts?
It is estimated that every 1000g of water contains 35g of dissolved salts.Thus,the average salinity is 35 per thousand.In general,salinity decreases towards the equator due to heavy rainfall.
What is the general direction of wind and ocean currents?
Wind generally moves from areas of high pressure to low pressure, creating global wind patterns such as the trade winds and westerlies. Ocean currents are driven by a combination of wind, Earth's rotation, and differences in water temperature and salinity. In general, ocean currents flow in circular patterns around the major ocean basins.
What region of water has the same temperature an salinity?
The region of water that maintains a consistent temperature and salinity is typically found in the ocean's pycnocline, which is a layer where the density gradient is greatest. Additionally, the thermocline, a layer in the ocean where temperature changes rapidly with depth, can also exhibit relatively uniform conditions in specific areas. These zones can be influenced by factors such as ocean currents and local environmental conditions, leading to variations in temperature and salinity. In general, deeper waters tend to have more stable temperatures and salinities compared to surface waters.
What is The general condition of temperature and precipitation for an area is called?
The general condition of temperature and precipitation for an area is called the climate. Climate describes the long-term patterns of weather typically experienced in a specific region.
What is the salinity in the oceans?
The amount of salt in the water. Near the surface of the open oceans salinity is in general between 3.3% and 3.7%
Is February colder than January?
In general, February is not always colder than January. The temperature can vary depending on the location and weather patterns.
Are eggs denser then saltwater?
It depends on the salinity of the saltwater, but in general, no, eggs will float in saltwater.
Characteristics that describe how all matter is the same is called?
The characteristics that describe how all matter is the same are known as physical properties. These include properties such as mass, volume, density, and temperature, which are applicable to all types of matter.
Describe housekeeping department and its general function?
describe the general business travel
What are the general appearance of isotherms?
Isotherms on a weather map appear as lines connecting points of equal temperature. They are spaced apart based on temperature differences, with closer lines indicating a steeper temperature gradient. Isotherms help visualize temperature patterns across a region or globe.
