Oceanic freshwater flux. Oceanic freshwater fluxes are defined as the transport of non saline water between the oceans and the other components of the Earth's system (the lands, the atmosphere and the cryosphere). These fluxes have an impact on the local ocean properties (on sea surface salinity, temperature and elevation), as well as on the ...
At 150 metres (500 ft) below the surface, water has flowed as fast as 0.40 metres per second (1.3 ft/s), showing mixing up to 1,000 times the normal rate in the deep ocean. The flow is hydraulically-controlled, which means it flows smoothly over a shallow ridge just off Cape Flattery then on the other side forms a turbulent breaking undersea ...
The water table is the upper surface of the zone of saturation. The zone of saturation is where the pores and fractures of the ground are saturated with groundwater, [1] which may be fresh, saline, or brackish, depending on the locality. It can also be simply explained as the depth below which the ground is saturated.
