Question

Upwelling, the rising of water from deeper layers of the ocean, is a wind-induced movement that brings ________ water to the surface.

Answer 1

Answer:

Upwelling, the rising of water from deeper layers of the ocean, is a wind-induced movement that brings cold and nutrient rich water to the surface.

Explanation:

Marine resurgence is an oceanographic phenomenon that occurs when subsurface waters rise. These waters consist of a large amount of nutrients and have a lower temperature than surface waters, becoming colder. This phenomenon generally occurs in areas where primary production is high, or when there is strong fishing activity in the region.
