NASA is to space what NOAA is to water and air!

Wind causes most waves

Watch the water droplet move in a vertical circle as the wave passes. The droplet moves forward with the wave's crest and backward with the trough.*

Tides are caused by the moon’s gravity pulling on the Earth’s water.

How many high tides and low tides do we have each day?
If you are at the beach and high tide is at 6:00am, about what time would low tide be? When would the next high tide be?
Watch carefully!
This is a view from above the North Pole.
This is what is happening at the beach!

As the moon pulls on the Earth’s water, it rises and falls.
Have you had a “tide” experience at the beach?

What elements and compounds are in the ocean besides water (H2O)?

Chemicals in the ocean
The most common chemical in the ocean is sodium chloride – the same salt you put on your food!
Salinity refers to how much salt is in water.
![Page 11: Hydro Salt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081418/554a84ebb4c9056d288b55da/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Salinity varies based on
1. Temperature and evaporation of water. When water evaporates, it leaves the salt behind making the water saltier (orange).
2. Closeness to a “fresh” water source like a river or icebergs causes low salinity (blue).

Less light so the living things must be able to live without light.
More pressure due to the weight of the water above.
It usually gets colder the deeper you go.
![Page 13: Hydro Salt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081418/554a84ebb4c9056d288b55da/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Salty water is more dense than fresh water. That means that fresh water will “float” on top of salty water and not mix well.
Cold water is more dense than warm water. That means that warm water will “float” on top of cold water.
Both these facts make water want to move. If cold water moves on top of warm water, the difference in density will make them slowly switch places. This causes currents.

Deep currents are caused by differences in salinity, temperature, and shape of the ocean floor.
Surface currents are caused by wind.
![Page 15: Hydro Salt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081418/554a84ebb4c9056d288b55da/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Surface currents are caused by wind.Surface currents near the equator are warm.

Because the Earth is spinning, the ocean water and wind trying to travel in a straight line from one place to another gets pulled off course.
Also affects currents

Continued!
Notice that the ball in the center of the disk is trying to roll toward the red dot. But because the disk is spinning under the ball, it never makes it to the red dot but is “deflected” to the side.
http://en.wikipedia.org
The top view is showing that the ball actually moves in a straight line.
The bottom view is showing the path the ball took across the disk.

Sonar –(SOund Navigation
and Ranging)
Sonar tells us about the shape of the ocean floor by sending sound waves to the ocean floor and measuring how long it takes the energy to return. This tells us the topography of the ocean floor. Do you remember what topography is?
Ship using sonar and what it discovered.

It is certainly not flat! Remember sea floor spreading?
