What is the relationship between temperature and ocean depth

Geography
1 answer:
Drupady [299]3 years ago
7 0

Due to decreased access of sunlight as you get closer to the ocean floor, the deeper the water, the colder the temperature will be. An every day example of this would be like swimming in pools on a sunny day. The top layer, where you dip your foot in to check the temperature, is always warmer than when you get fully into the pool. Hope it helps!!!

Which gulf is off the southern coast of the united states?
Brums [2.3K]
<h2>Answer: The Gulf of Mexico </h2>

The Gulf of Mexico is an ocean basin that formed after the collision of the continental plates and the sinking of the seabed during the rupture of the former Pangea mega continent millions of years ago.

This gulf is also the ninth largest water surface in the world, which is contained among the littorals of Mexico, the United States and the island of Cuba. Therefore, this mass of water corresponds to the Atlantic Ocean in the northern part of the American Continent.

Explain how temperature inversion create severe smog episodes (can draw a picture to describe as well)
shusha [124]
In most cases, as altitude increases, the air in the troposphere cools. Vertical mixing occurs as a result of warm air rising. However, a layer of cool air may form beneath a layer of warm air on occasion. Temperature/thermal inversion refers to this deviation from normal temperature.
When an inversion occurs, polluted areas (such as London and Donora PA) experience unhealthy air and an increase in smog because pollutants are trapped at ground level rather than circulating away.
