of salt water taffy, along with a natural disaster that helped with the making of the loved sweet. The climate of the saltwater includes the temperature and salt amount. The temperature ranges from “-2 degrees Celsius to 28 degrees Celsius” (“The Ocean” 3). In Fahrenheit, that is 28.4 degrees to 82.4 degrees. The deepest parts are…

to many plants and animals within its many oceans and three different levels. Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic, Southern, and Indian are the five main oceans on this planet. Each ocean is separated into three levels, known as euphotic, disphotic, and aphotic. The euphotic zone is also known as the sunlight zone, this is the top layer of the ocean and it receives almost all of the sun's rays. The next section is called the disphotic zone. This layer of the ocean is a little too deep for much sunlight to…

Due to the carbon dioxide levels increasing over time, the acidification of the ocean has become much stronger. Behavior patterns are not the only thing changing because of the rising temperatures; the migration patterns are changing as well. I chose to analyze a marine science article published by Inside Science News. The article, “Ocean Acidification May Change How Sharks Behave,” was based on a study that was trying to prove how swimming patterns and temperature changes would affect a shark’s…

Twelve Apostles The Twelve Apostles are lime stone rocks which are standing in the sea. The Apostles were formed by erosion. They lie between Princetown and Port Campbell in the Twelve Apostles Marine National Park, in the Southern Ocean on the coastline of Victoria. It is also bordered to the Port Campbell National Park. It's probably the most photographed attraction in Australia. It was called ''The Sow and Pigs'' and ''Muttonbird Island''. These names were noted on the map which was used…

(connected to different mechanisms) that cause down- and upwelling. Upwelling and Downwelling refers to the upwards and downwards movment of water molecules in the ocean system. Downwelling happens when near-surface water sinks and upwelling is the subsurface waters rising. Downwelling occurs when the water at the surface of the ocean becomes denser than the water below it, this dense water then sinks. Water becomes dense when it becomes saltier or colder as a result of freezing or moving to…

The ocean circulation can be defined like the global movement of water, which occurs in the ocean basins. These movement of water are the ocean currents, which plays an important role in the climate since store and distribute heat, microorganisms like nutrients and freshwater all over the world. Therefore, any change that modifies the ocean circulation will alter drastically the global climate. In this section it will be broadly explained the factors, which determine the ocean circulation and a…

Island was founded in 1980, also it compromises with 5 other islands Anacapa,Santa cruz,Santa Rosa,San Miguel, and Santa Barbara Island. The best time to visit the island is anytime you want because the Channel Island is located in the sunny part of Southern California. The climate there is about in the mid 60s and as low as in the 50s, the island mostly receive their precipitation between december and march, then spring also starts the warming trend toward summer although temperatures average…

activity are not only affecting the environment but also that oceans all around the world. This of course partially has to do with the overall warming of the planet caused by climate change. But, over time most of this carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is being absorbed by the ocean, where it then reacts with the seawater and forms an acid that is corrosive to coral reefs, shellfish, as well as a plethora of other sea life. This is known as ‘ocean acidification’. Coral reefs are most vulnerable…

didn’t know how they started. Something that people saw around the time it was going to start was animals were going to higher ground than normal. Also, the water started going in towards the ocean. People went to check it out because humans are very curious and you don’t really get to see the bottom of the ocean. The tsunami hit around 1 am ( their time).…
