It gets colder because cold water has more density than warm water
dimulka [17.4K]3 years ago
3 0
As you get deeper into the ocean, the temperature of the water starts dropping and so the water gets colder.Cold water always have a higher density than warmer water. In case of the oceans the cold and salty water settles at the bottom due to higher density and the warmer water rises to the surface. Although the temperature of the water rises by negligible amount from contact with the earth's surface, but it is so negligible that it does not warm the water enough. The sunlight on the other hand beats down on the surface water of the ocean to make it a little more warm.

Explain how increased ocean temperatures increases the strength of hurricanes

The rising of warm, moist air from the ocean helps to power the storm. Two other factors may also be contributing to the rising intensities of hurricanes. First, warm air holds more water vapor than cold air—and the rising air temperatures since the 1970s have caused the atmospheric water vapor content to rise as well.

What zone receives the most sunlight
Keith_Richards [23]

The 90-degree angle would be hotter since this is receiving the most direct sunlight concentrated in a smaller area. In areas at the equator, the angle of incoming rays from the Sun is perpendicular (90 degrees) to the Earth's surface during all days of the year. Such areas experience warm climates throughout the year
