According to the density profile shown here, at which depth would you find the coolest, saltiest waters?

Depth A

Depth C

Ocean currents have an effect on which two things?

climate and weather

equator and poles

What do we call the constantly moving system of deep-ocean circulation driven by differences in temperature and salinity?

California Current

Surface Currents

Global Conveyor Belt

Salt water is _____________ fresh water.

more dense than

the same density as

As the temperature of ocean water changes from 10 to 30 degrees C, how does the density change?

The water becomes more dense

The water becomes less dense

The density does not change

What factors create deep ocean currents?

Increase in salinity; increase in temperature

Increase in salinity; decrease in temperature

Decrease in salinity, decrease in temperature

Which of the following drives global thermohaline (conveyor belt) circulation?

changes in density

changes in pH

changes in gravity

What is the upward movement of cold water from the ocean depths called?

La Nina

Upwelling

Global warming

As more carbon has been put into the atmosphere, the ocean's pH levels have decreased. This is known as...

upwelling

El Nino

ocean acidification

What is the most likely cause of the coral bleaching shown below?

Increased storm intensity

Excess nutrients

Ocean acidification

Surface ocean temperatures of the eastern tropical Pacific are colder than average during an El Niño event.

True

False

An increase in the temperature of seawater is one possible cause of coral bleaching.  The Global Coral Bleaching Events graph shows the relationship between the change in seawater temperature and three global coral bleaching events.

The change in seawater temperature is correlated with the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.  The Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide graph shows how the amount of carbon dioxide in he atmosphere has changed since 1960.

Scientists claim that an increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere destabilizes coral reef ecosystems. Which evidence from the Global Coral Bleaching Events and Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide graphs supports the claim?

The increase in seawater temperature correlates with the decrease in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels

The increase in the frequency of coral bleaching events correlates with the increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels

The atmospheric carbon dioxide level and change in seawater temperature flucatuate at regular intervals
