  2. Ocean heat content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_heat_content

    Ocean heat content (OHC) or ocean heat uptake (OHU) is the energy absorbed and stored by oceans. To calculate the ocean heat content, it is necessary to measure ocean temperature at many different locations and depths. Integrating the areal density of a change in enthalpic energy over an ocean basin or entire ocean gives the total ocean heat ...

  5. Physical properties of soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_properties_of_soil

    Thereby soil bulk density is always less than soil particle density and is a good indicator of soil compaction. [47] The soil bulk density of cultivated loam is about 1.1 to 1.4 g/cm 3 (for comparison water is 1.0 g/cm 3). [48] Contrary to particle density, soil bulk density is highly variable for a given soil, with a strong causal relationship ...

  6. Temperature–salinity diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature–salinity_diagram

    T-S diagram of a station in the North Pacific. In oceanography, temperature-salinity diagrams, sometimes called T-S diagrams, are used to identify water masses.In a T-S diagram, rather than plotting each water property as a separate "profile," with pressure or depth as the vertical coordinate, potential temperature (on the vertical axis) is plotted versus salinity (on the horizontal axis).

  7. Haline contraction coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haline_contraction_coefficient

    where ρ is the density of a water parcel in the ocean and S is the absolute salinity. The subscripts Θ and p indicate that β is defined at constant potential temperature Θ and constant pressure p. The haline contraction coefficient is constant when a water parcel moves adiabatically along the isobars.

    Researchers found an increase in common dolphin sightings in the English Channel and Hebrides, and a decline in white-beaked dolphins in the Hebrides.

  9. Thermohaline circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermohaline_circulation

    Thermohaline circulation (THC) is a part of the large-scale ocean circulation that is driven by global density gradients created by surface heat and freshwater fluxes. [1] [2] The adjective thermohaline derives from thermo-referring to temperature and -haline referring to salt content, factors which together determine the density of sea water.
