Q

What is the water cycle?

A

as water is evaporated and precipitated, heat is being transfered to atmosphere which is a source of energy that powers weather systems

16
Q

What are the ways water cen interact with energy

A

transmitted, reflected refracted, diffracted, absorbed, scatters

17
Q

What is conduction?

A

Transfer of heat energy through matter by internal molecular motion

18
Q

What is convection?

A

transfer through movement of a heated gas or liquid

19
Q

What is radiation?

A

transmitted as electromagnetic maves without a substance to conduct the energy

20
Q

What is verdical temperature distribution?

A

temperature of seawater decreases with depth. Roughly 75% of ocean has temp between 0- and 4° C.

21
Q

How is light transmitted by water?

A

absorbtion,scattered,refracted,electromagnetic radiation

22
Q

What is aborbtion when light is transmitted through water?

A

taking in of a substance by chemical or molecular means, change light or sound into another form of energy (usually heat).

23
Q

What is scatter when light is transmitted through water?

A

random redirection of light or sound energy by reflection on uneven boundary.

24
Q

What is refraction when light is transmitted through water?

A

change in direction of a light or sound wave due to a change in the substance it is moving through.

25
Q

What is the electromagnetic radiation

A

waves of energy formed by electrical and magnetic oscillations that produce LIGHT.

26
Q

What is attenuation?

A

decrease in the energy of a wave beam with an increase in distance from the surface

27
Q

What is Beer’s law?

A

Iz = I0e-kz

28
Q

What is the depth equation?

A

-ln(Iz/I0)/k

29
Q

What is attenuation in open ocean water?

A

50% of the light is attenuated in the first 10m.

30
Q

How much water is attenuated by 100m?

A

100%
