At high latitudes, thermocline is absent, thus salinity determines density.amydata123 wrote:Can you explain how to do this one?
• write a hypothesis to explain changes in water salinity in high latitude ocean regions

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
Oceanography is often times taught as a college class, so there are a bunch of lectures and textbooks out there to study from. If you just look up "introductory oceanography textbook" you'll get tons of good books.scimckenna wrote:Hey guys!

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
Hi! I was taking a practice test and came upon this question:
If the high tide of a diurnal tide occurs at 10:00 AM on one day, when will the next high tide occur?
a. 10:25 P.M. the same day
b. 10:50 A.M. the next day
c. 10:00 A.M. the next day
d. 10:00 P.M. the same day
e. 10:25 A.M. the next day
Now, I know that 1 high and 1 low tide occur per day with a diurnal tide. So, it has a period of ~24 hours. This eliminates choices A and D. How do I choose between B, C, and E?
If the high tide of a diurnal tide occurs at 10:00 AM on one day, when will the next high tide occur?
a. 10:25 P.M. the same day
b. 10:50 A.M. the next day
c. 10:00 A.M. the next day
d. 10:00 P.M. the same day
e. 10:25 A.M. the next day
Now, I know that 1 high and 1 low tide occur per day with a diurnal tide. So, it has a period of ~24 hours. This eliminates choices A and D. How do I choose between B, C, and E?

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
Oh, thanks! So then, if the question asked about a semi-diurnal tide, would the answer be 10:25 PM the same day?windu34 wrote:Tides have a period of 24 hours and 50 minsJT016 wrote:Hi! I was taking a practice test and came upon this question:
