What is the movement of deep cold and nutrient rich water to the surface?
The movement of deep cold and nutrient-rich water to the surface is known as upwelling. Upwelling occurs when winds push surface water away from a coastline, causing the deep colder water to rise and replace it. This process brings up essential nutrients from the deep ocean to the surface, supporting the growth of phytoplankton and other marine life.
What is the rising of nutrient-rich water from deep in the ocean called?
Upwelling
What do you call the circulation in ocean that brings deep cold water to the surface?
Ocean convection currents move the deep cold water to the surface of oceans.
What current brings cold water to the ocean surface?
An upwelling is a current in the ocean that brings deep, cold water to the ocean surface.
What is ocean upwelling?
Ocean up welling is a term to describe the water rising from the deep depths of the ocean floor because of specific wind patterns. This is something beneficial to phytoplankton because the deep cold water has nutrients and dissolved gases that, with sunlight, allow the plankton to photosynthesize. from Vader134
What is the movement of cold water up from the deep ocean?

What causes cold nutrientrich waters move up to the ocean's surface?
Cold nutrient-rich waters move up to the ocean's surface through a process called upwelling, which occurs when winds push surface water away from the coast, allowing deeper water to rise and replace it. This upwelling brings nutrient-rich waters from the deep ocean to the surface, supporting the growth of phytoplankton and driving the marine food web.
What is the phenomenon of cold deep current moving toward the equator?
The phenomenon you are referring to is called "cold deep water upwelling." It occurs when cold, nutrient-rich water from deep ocean currents rises towards the surface as it moves towards the equator. This process plays a crucial role in maintaining oceanic ecosystems by transporting nutrients and supporting marine life.
What brings electeic current to your home?
deep, cold water to the ocean surface
When upwelling takes place cold water from the deep ocean does what?
Rises to the surface.
Why do plant plankton not grow in the deep ocean?
because the water is to dark and cold
Are deep ocean currents predominantly cold or warm?
Deep ocean currents are predominantly cold.
