About tide in the Ocean(The Tidal Ocean)

IILSS 2nd July 2022 Are tides bigger than waves?Can you surf when the tide is going out?Does high tide mean the water is in or out?Does low tide mean the sea is out?Does the tide go in and out or up and down?How do tides affect humans?How do you explain tides to kids?How long does the tide stay in for?What are the 4 types of tides?What causes the tide?What do tides do?What does a high and low tide mean?What does a high tide mean?What does it mean when tide is going out?What happens when the tide comes in?What is high tide called?What is the difference between a wave and tide?What is tide in the ocean?What might happen on a beach as the tide goes out?What tide occurs twice a day?Where does the sea go when the tide goes out?Which seas are not tidal?Which tide occurs once a day?Why do lakes not have tides?Why does the moon affect tides but not us?Why is it important to know about tides?Why is there no tide in the Caribbean?

Twice a day, the sea rises up the shore then falls back again
in tides. However, the effect is only local. While the tide
is rising in one place, it is falling in another, as huge forces are
exerted on the vast mass of water in the oceans.
Tides fall in one place and rise in another because the water in
the oceans is moving around, flowing this way and that across the
face of the planet, so that it piles up in one place, making the tide
flow in, and drops away in another, making the tide ebb. It is this
continual ebb and flow of ocean water that makes many simple
explanations of why tides occur misleading or wrong.

About circulating Water in the oceans

IILSS 2nd July 2022 Does the ocean ever stop moving?How deep water circulates throughout the world ocean?How do ocean circulation affect climate?How do ocean currents work?How does ocean circulation affect sea level rise?How important is the water circulation?How long does it take for ocean water to circulate?How many types of ocean circulation are there?What are circulating ocean currents called?What are the 4 main ocean currents?What are the effects of ocean currents?What are the two types of ocean currents?What causes circulation in the ocean?What do you think might cause the ocean water to stop circulating around the world?What is circulating water pump in thermal power plant?What is circulating water system?What is ocean circulation 7?What is ocean circulation short answer?What is the name of the largest ocean current?What is water circulation?What may cause ocean waters to stop circulating around the globe?What three processes circulate water in the ocean?What would happen if ocean circulation stopped?Why is circulating water an effective method of cooling?

Ocean circulation is driven by persistent winds at the surface
and density differences lower down. The pattern of wind-surface
currents is dominated by five great loops or ‘gyres’: two in the
Atlantic, two in the Pacific, and a fifth in the Indian Ocean.
Pulled by the prevailing winds, they are curled into loops firstly
by running up against land barriers and secondly by the effect
of the Earth’s rotation.

About ocean Acidification

With all the attention given to global warming, a second potentially
devastating effect of the human addition of carbon dioxide to the air has
rather slipped under the radar – the increasing acidity of the oceans.

The heights of mountains and the altitude of aircraft
are often given as ‘above sea level’, as if the level of the sea
was permanently fixed. Yet even in the present day, it is very
difficult to pinpoint the level of the sea accurately. The sea moves
continuously, not only with the tides, but with wind, waves, and
currents, and even daily changes in temperature and chemistry. In
the UK, heights are measured relative to the Ordnance Datum, an
average achieved by year upon year of measurements of the mean
sea level shown by tide gauges at particular sites.

Earth’s Broken Shell

IILSS 1st July 2022 Are continents still moving?Can the Earth's crust be destroyed?How did Earth break apart?How old is the Earth?Is the Earth going to crack?Is there life under the earth's crust?What happens if Earth's crust breaks?What part of the Earth is broken into pieces?What would happen if the Earth's crust opened up?When the Earth will broke?Which Earth's crust is broken?Why has the Earth cracked Why did this happen?Why our Earth is called unstable?Will the Earth crack in half?

The division of the world into land and sea seems so
natural and timeless that it is hard to imagine it any other
way. Yet the very existence of continents and oceans is unique to
planet Earth, and their behaviour is even more remarkable.
Early in the 20th century, a German meteorologist named
Alfred Wegener noted the extraordinary way coastlines of
continents seemed to match across the oceans, like the separated
pieces of a vast jigsaw. He suggested that this was because the
continents were once joined together and the oceans between
them opened up as they split apart and drifted around the
world over many millions of years.
