Oxygen reaches deep ocean bottoms primarily through a process called thermohaline circulation, where surface waters cool, become denser, and sink. Additionally, oxygen enters the deep ocean through wind-driven mixing and the sinking of oxygen-rich water masses from polar regions. Some oxygen is also supplied by the decay of organic matter that sinks from the surface, which can lead to localized areas of low oxygen in the deep sea. Overall, these processes ensure that oxygen is distributed throughout the ocean's depths, although levels can vary significantly.
What else can I help you with?
Why is oxygen a survival challenge in the deep ocean?
There is hardly any oxygen available at low depths, thus making oxygen a survival challenge in the deep.
The deep waters of the ocean are?
poor in oxygen and rich in carbon dioxide
Why is oxygen high at the surface and the deep parts of the ocean but not in the mid-water region?
Because it is.
To get to the bottom of theIndian ocean what do you have to take a oxygen tank or bathysphere?
A Bathysphere, you would implode that deep with just an oxygen tank. But good luck;)
What regions would you expect to find the largest amounts of dissolved oxygen in the ocean floor?
in the deep oceon floor
Where would you find starfish in the world?
They live in the ocean-on the sea bottoms
Why is the ocean deep?
the ocean is deep because that is the shape of the earth and although we are not sure how deep the ocean is we do know that there is life in the deep. the ocean has made itself deep but there is really no cause that is known.
Where is the most anaerobic zone in the ocean?
The most anaerobic zone in the ocean is found in the waters near the seafloor in regions known as oxygen minimum zones (OMZs). These areas have very low levels of dissolved oxygen, making them suitable habitats for anaerobic organisms. OMZs are often located in deep ocean basins or along coastlines where oxygen supply is limited.
What ocean is famed for its deep?
The Pacific Ocean has the deepest point in the Challanger Deep.
What is a deep current-?
Deep current is a movement of the ocean water. The ocean waters current is continuous.
If the sea surface temperature is increased in Antarctic Ocean due to global warming the dissolved oxygen in its deep water will?
If the sea surface temperature in the Antarctic Ocean increases due to global warming, the dissolved oxygen levels in its deep water are likely to decrease. Warmer water holds less oxygen, which can lead to hypoxic conditions and negatively affect marine life. Additionally, changes in ocean circulation patterns may further disrupt oxygen distribution in deeper waters. This can have cascading effects on the entire marine ecosystem.
How deep do squid live in the ocean?
They live in deep trenches in the ocean.
