What is the geographic distribution of the ocean?
It is all of the oceans
Which abiotic factor limits the distribution of the ocean but does not usually limit the distribution of life on land?
water
What is the major cause of the distribution of sediments on the ocean floors of the world?
the temperature of the water in the upper layers of the ocean
What is the geographical distribution of the ocean?
The ocean covers about 70% of the Earth's surface and is divided into five main basins: the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern, and Arctic Ocean. These oceans are interconnected, but the distribution varies with the Pacific Ocean being the largest and the Arctic Ocean being the smallest.
What can you determine by using the temperature and salinity of ocean water oceanographers can determine what?
Oceanographers can determine ocean currents, density variations, and the distribution of marine organisms by using the temperature and salinity of ocean water. These properties influence the movement of water masses and the distribution of marine life in different parts of the ocean.
What is energy in the ocean distributed by?
Energy in the ocean is distributed by a combination of factors such as ocean currents, wind patterns, and solar radiation. These forces drive the movement of water and influence temperature gradients, which in turn affect ocean circulation and distribution of energy. Heat transfer, evaporation, and precipitation also play a role in the distribution of energy in the ocean.
How does the ocean help with puerto rico's culture?
for tourism economic (food, distribution)
A school of fish in the ocean is best described as what type of population distribution?
Clumped
Why is there a bimodal distribution of elevations on the surface of the earth?
The bimodal distribution of elevations on Earth's surface is due to the presence of both ocean basins and continental landmasses. The ocean basins are generally lower in elevation, while the continental landmasses have higher elevations, resulting in the bimodal distribution commonly observed.
Why do isotherms not run parallel?
Because the unequal distribution of land and water and ocean currents influence their direction.
What is a rapid change in ocean density with change in depth called?
A rapid change in ocean density with depth is called a thermocline. This thermocline is caused by variations in temperature and can impact ocean circulation and marine life distribution.
What zonation occurs in the ocean zone called the?
Zonation occurs in the ocean zone called the intertidal. Zonation is the distribution of organisms in biogeographic zones. It is also the arrangement or formation in zones.
