Answer: The correct option is D. Much of the coastal Florida will be underwater considering the pattern of ocean conveyor belt setting and geographical location.

The ocean circulation conveyor belt or the thermohaline circulation of sea water circulates massive water currents from northern to southern oceans and again back. The water from tropical Atlantic is warm and moves towards the poles supplying heat to atmosphere which drops the temperature a little in high altitudes. The warm water on releasing heat becomes denser and sinks down. This closed circulation loop makes the cold water move towards the tropical region at the deeper levels.

Atlantic acts as an engine for the entire planet’s conveyor belt of the ocean current, the cold water which is sinking up in North Atlantic drives current in the Pacific ocean as well .

What variables could influence the width of marine magnetic anomalies on the floor of the ocean?
raketka [301]

Answer:

Duration of the magnetic polarity event

Rate at which the plates are moving away from the mid-ocean ridge

Explanation:

The marine magnetic anomaly usually refers to the variation that occurs in terms of the magnetic field strength of the earth. This takes place because of the presence of minerals within the rocks of seafloor that contains high magnetic property.

These magnetic anomalies occurring in the marine rocks cover only about 1% of the total strength of the geomagnetic field. It shows either positive or negative anomaly.

Some of the factors that influence the width of this marine magnetic anomalies on the rocks of ocean-floor includes:

  • The amount of time it takes during the magnetic polarity event
  • The rate at which the tectonic plates move at a divergent plate boundary from the mid-oceanic ridge.
