Convection. It occurs when a cooler, denser mass of gas or liquid replaces a warmer, less dense mass of gas or liquid by pushing it upward. A good example would be steam rising from a pot of boiling water on a stove top.
When the water is boiled, the water moves in roughly circular patterns because of convection. This motion is due to density differences that result from temperature differences. Also referred as a convection current.

Hope this helps you out.

Asia and the Pacific region have continued to remain the world's largest producer of fish. Various researchers have identified certain benefits of consuming seafood, which have caused greater demand for them. Apart from being ideal source of vitamins, fish is also rich in Omega 3 fatty acids, which can help prevent high blood pressure, cancer and heart diseases. Seafood also strengthen the immune system through their antioxidants.  

Rapid advances in fishing technology have led to the dramatic increase over the last 50 years in how many fish we are able to catch. Most people in the fishing business now use factory ships, in place of fishing vessels. These ships are can stay at the sea for several weeks and they have all the necessary equipment that can be used to either freeze of tin fish that they catch using their hunting ships.  

The factory ships need to get full before they can return to base and this has caused over a 7% growth in catches every year.

How does a continental divide affect the way water flows over land
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

generally, precipitation that falls on one side of the divide will flow to one basin and precipitation that falls on the other side will flow to another basin, in some cases, water runs toward an endorheic basin, such as a saline lake or salt flat.

Explanation:

a continental divide is a ridge or natural boundary of elevated terrain that separates the drainage basins of a continent. Each drainage basin contributes its water to river systems, which in turn flow into distinct larger bodies of water, such as oceans.

Discuss the part tsunamis play in transferring energy to land. what would i put?
irakobra [83]
When a tsunami approaches land, it will become very high. When this happens, the water particles will be displaced farther away from equilibrium. They will receive a lot of potential energy and only when the wave makes contact with land will it be released.
