Does the pattern around the Atlantic ocean look similar to or different from the pacific ocean?
The patterns around the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean exhibit both similarities and differences. Both oceans feature significant circulation patterns, such as gyres, which influence climate and weather. However, the Atlantic has a more pronounced meridional (north-south) circulation due to its narrower shape, while the Pacific showcases a broader range of currents and a more complex system due to its size and depth. Additionally, the Atlantic is more influenced by continental landmasses, leading to different temperature and salinity distributions compared to the Pacific.

Where in the pacific have the same type of pattern as seen in the Atlantic?
The Pacific Ocean has a similar pattern to the Atlantic Ocean in terms of the presence of hurricane-like storms, known as typhoons. Typhoons form in the western Pacific Ocean and can also impact regions along the Pacific Rim in a manner similar to hurricanes in the Atlantic Basin. Both types of storms can have significant impacts on coastal areas.
What continents the Panama Canal separates?
The Panama Canal separates North and South America. In reality, they are considered the same continent in many respects. In a similar fashion, the Suez Canal separates Africa from the Eurasia Continent.
Why does not elnino occur in the Atlantic?
El Niño is primarily associated with the Pacific Ocean due to specific ocean-atmosphere interactions that occur there, such as the warm water displacement along the equatorial Pacific. The Atlantic Ocean does not have the same conditions, including the necessary oceanic currents and thermoclines, to support the development of similar phenomena. Additionally, the atmospheric dynamics and trade winds in the Atlantic do not create the same feedback loops that drive El Niño events in the Pacific. As a result, while the Atlantic can experience its own climate variations, they are distinct from El Niño.
What are the names of all the oceans - Cached - Similar?
Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern, Arctic, Marian Trench, Puerto Rico Trench, Java Trench, Arctic Basin and Southern Ocean
Why is the deep pacific ocean more acidic than the deep Atlantic ocean?
Naturally, seawater in the North Pacific Ocean is more acidic (lower in pH) than in the North Atlantic Ocean. This is related to the circulation, biology and chemistry in the ocean, which involve complicated processes that oceanographers have been studying for decades. The results of these processes are that seawater in the North Pacific in general has lower pH, but higher TCO2 concentrations than that of the North Atlantic at similar latitude. source: WHOI Chemist Aleck Wang at http://funwithkrill.blogspot.com/2012/09/seawater-chemistry-north-atlantic-vs.html]
Manifest Destiny was the belief that the US should?
Move westward at any cost. The citizens of the United States had a God-given right to conquer the land to the Pacific Ocean.
Where in the world can you find hurricanes?
Tropical cyclones (the generic term for hurricanes and similar storms) are most common in the western portions of oceans in the tropics. Such storms are called hurricanes in the Atlantic ocean and the eastern Pacific hurricane.
How are the Andes Mountains of south America similar in location to the Rocky Mountains in the US?
The Andes act as a barrier to moisture coming from either the Atlantic or Pacific Oceans, forming rain shadow deserts.
