Question

Help!!!!!!!!

The Pacific Ocean has _______ water than the Atlantic Ocean. _______ circulation moves water between warmer and cooler and salty and less salty areas of the ocean. If the thermohaline circulation stops due to global warming, Europe will likely become _______. The vehicles that move underwater to gather ocean data are known as _______. _______ is one of the two water masses that is part of the thermohaline circulation. Respond to the following based on your reading. Briefly explain the forces that drive thermohaline circulation between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.

Answer 1

warmer

thermohaline

colder

autonomous underwater vehicles

Two possible answers: North Atlantic Deep Water or Antarctic Bottom Water

Thermohaline circulation occurs because the temperature of the Pacific Ocean is high near the equator and the seawater is less saline. Meanwhile, the Atlantic Ocean is colder and more saline. As water in the Pacific Ocean heats, it expands and causes nearby water to start flowing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

1. Warmer.

2. Thermohaline.

3. Colder.

4. Autonomous underwater vehicles.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this exercise you have to complete the blanks using some information about the Thermohaline circulation.

For example:

1. Warmer.

2. Thermohaline.

3. Colder.

4. Autonomous underwater vehicles.

Thermohaline circulation between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans is a kind of a scale ocean circulation that is created by heat and freshwater fluxes. The Atlantic Ocean has colder waters than the Pacific Ocean. Besides, the Atlantic water are salty.
