Question

Describe at least four examples of how the atmosphere influences the oceans. Be certain to explicitly describe mechanisms of the atmospheric phenomena you chose. Then, explain how the ocean responds by influencing the atmosphere and the earth system as a whole.

Answer 1

Answer:

presence of green house gases

Change in Temperature of the atmosphere

Change in seasons

presence of Plants

Explanation:

four ( 4 ) ways in which the atmosphere influences the oceans

• Presence of green house gases

The green house gases affects the atmospheric layers of the atmosphere which leads to an increase amount of ultraviolent rays ( sunrays ) heating up the oceans. The heating up of the Oceans will lead to increase in heat storage by the water bodies and also increase the evaporation of water vapors into the atmosphere

• Change in  Temperature of the seasons

The various changes in the temperature is caused by Human and natural activities like wild bush fires and when the atmosphere is heated up the Oceans are cooler and they send across cool air to the earth system to help balance up the change in Temperature

• Change in seasons

The change in seasons affects the strength of the ocean currents

• Presence of plants in the earth system

Plants produces Oxygen while making use of Carbon dioxide . the oxygen produced by plants are collected by the oceans and stored for use by animals
