Are the Currents in the ocean moved by heat and salinity.?
No.
How heat is moved around in Earth's oceans?
this is explaining that rahima wants to marry the earths ocean and the heat moves and joins together to combin and didrupt
Are currents in the ocean mostly moved by heat and salinity?
No.
Does surface currents distribute heat by motion?
Ocean surface currents redistribute heat around the world's climate. The Gulf Stream and the North Atlantic current bring in warm salty tropical water.
How is heat moved around the earth's oceans?
Through an elaborate system of ocean currents. Water is cooled at the poles and sinks, because it is a little more dense than warmer water. The cool water moves around the ocean floor and spreads toward the equator, generally, and warmer water moves up at the equator and spreads out along the surface.
What is the Atlantic thermohaline circulation?
The Atlantic thermohaline circulation, also known as the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), is a large system of ocean currents that transport warm, salty water northward in the Atlantic Ocean and colder, fresher water southward. It plays a crucial role in regulating Earth's climate by distributing heat around the globe. Disruption of the AMOC can have significant impacts on regional and global climate patterns.
What is a large streams of surface seawater that move heat around the earth?
Large streams of surface seawater that move heat around the Earth are known as ocean currents. These currents are driven by factors such as wind patterns, the Earth's rotation, and differences in water density. They play a crucial role in regulating the planet's climate by distributing heat from the equator toward the poles. Notable examples include the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic Ocean and the Kuroshio Current in the Pacific Ocean.
Can you give examples of how the atmosphere moves heat energy around?
The heat energy is moved around by the suttle atmosphere winds
What do the currents do to the worlds heat flow?
Ocean current redistribute heat around the planet.
How will the climate change if we wern't so close to the ocean?
It would get cooler because of the high specific heat of water found in the ocean. Basically the ocean absorbs much heat which cools the area around it.
Why is the Atlantic coast colder than the pacific coast in the same latitude?
The water in the ocean holds heat and moves it around the world. In the Pacific Ocean, the water moves clockwise and the warm air moves north up the coast. The Atlantic current moves from the north to the south, bringing the cooler northern air along the coast. The Atlantic coasts on the east are about 20 degrees cooler than the Pacific coasts on the west. Plus, water holds heat much longer than land and the Pacific Ocean is larger than the Atlantic, so it's heat would last longer than the Atlantic Ocean's heat. Mountains also affect the temperature. Large amounts of clouds are usually gathered near mountains. During the summer time, warm clouds and rain heats up the mountain. This heat is used up during the winter time. The east coast does not have nearly the same elevations as west coast, therefore the precipitation is usually colder. For more information, visit the Related Link.
The three surface currents of the ocean?
The three major surface currents of the ocean are the Gulf Stream in the North Atlantic, the Kuroshio Current in the North Pacific, and the Antarctic Circumpolar Current in the Southern Ocean. These currents play a significant role in redistributing heat around the globe and influencing regional climates.
