Hace 5 días · Seawater - Density, Pressure, Salinity: The density of a material is given in units of mass per unit volume and expressed in kilograms per cubic metre in the SI system of units. In oceanography the density of seawater has been expressed historically in grams per cubic centimetre.
Hace 3 días · A sea is a large body of salty water. There are particular seas and the sea. The sea commonly refers to the ocean, the wider body of seawater . Particular seas are either marginal seas, second-order sections of the oceanic sea (e.g. the Mediterranean Sea ), or certain large, nearly landlocked bodies of water.
Hace 2 días · More generally, desalination is the removal of salts and minerals from a substance.[1] One example is soil desalination. This is important for agriculture. It is possible to desalinate saltwater, especially sea water, to produce water for human consumptionor irrigation.
Hace 5 días · The density of a material is given in units of mass per unit volume and expressed in kilograms per cubic metre in the SI system of units. In oceanography the density of seawater has been expressed historically in grams per cubic centimetre. The density of seawater is a function of temperature, salinity, and pressure.
Hace 5 días · Abstract. In the northwestern Barents Sea the warm and salty Atlantic Water meets the cold and fresh Polar Water, forming a distinct thermohaline front, the Barents Sea Polar Front. Here we present the structure of the front, its variability and associated mixing using observations from two cruises conducted in October 2020 and February 2021 during the Nansen Legacy project in the region ...
Hace 1 día · Mangroves, which thrive in salty water, help in preventing erosion and absorbing the impact of severe weather events such as cyclones. But more than half of the world's mangrove ecosystems are at risk of collapse, according to the first global mangrove assessment for the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Ecosystems released in May.
