Why the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans Refuse to Merge

I am sure you've seen it or caught a regard of some vids of vessels sailing through a weird line of water in those images one side is dark blue and clear and the other side is greenish and salty looking some have claimed the footage shows the boundaries between abysses and that water defies all its own laws by not mixing well it turns out that is not exactly true our earth is over 70 percent covered by water and out of all of that H2O two of the biggest bodies are the Pacific and Atlantic abysses these massive stretches of salty virtuousness are home to some of the world's most fascinating brutes from the smallest Plankton to the largest jumbos while we may have given these abysses separate names they are constantly mixing and mingling with each other anyhow of how we choose to draw our Charts is like a noway - ending cotillion party with water currents doing the Cha- Cha between the Pacific and Atlantic so do not be wisecracked by those imaginary borders we have drawn on our Charts these abysses are always in stir and connected in further ways than we can imagine now the Pacific Ocean Takes the cutlet for being the largest and deepest ocean on the earth it's actually deeper than the Grand Canyon meanwhile the Atlantic Ocean comes in alternate ah a red strip but sizes and everything right each of these abysses has its own unique set of characteristics for illustration did you know that the saltness of the Atlantic that is the swab content is advanced than that of the Pacific or Indian abysses or that the Waters of the Red Sea and the Mediterranean are indeed saltier still it's because of the lower saltness Waters from the deep ocean can not fluently flow in and water evaporates faster than downfall can replace it it's like the ocean has its own seasoning preferences hey who oh now let's talk about a little place called Cape Horn if you look at it on a chart you will have to scroll way down through South America it's also where the Pacific and Atlantic abysses come together to uh play then we can also find a important current that transports water from west to east displacing volumes from the Pacific into the Atlantic but let me tell you traveling around Cape Horn is no joke it's a turbulent and dangerous passage and numerous stalwart mariners have been lost trying it and eventually let's address the giant in the room or should I say the two- toned ocean you know the bone

I am talking about where two else colored types of water feel to be being alongside each other well I detest to break it to you but that is not where the Pacific and Atlantic abysses Collide it's just fresh water that is filled with deposition coming across some dark salty water from the ocean with the videotape captures is most likely taken from nearly in the Gulf of Alaska thinking of color palettes have you ever wondered why the ocean comes in a variety of tones of blue well get ready for a fun wisdom assignment first effects first let's get one thing clear the water that covers our entire earth isn't really blue it's clear it's the depth in what is in and below the water that influences this color it appears blue if the water is deep enough that light is not reflected off the bottom this is due to the fact that sun can be absorbed or reflected by water motes as it enters the ocean the wavelengths of light are more likely to scatter giving the ocean its blue color whereas the longer wavelengths are absorbed close to the face if there's nothing in the water but uh well water but that is not all the ocean's bottom and its patches can also affect the color for illustration in some areas of Greece the water comes in a gorgeous turquoise shade this happens due to the ocean bottom being filled with white beach or jewels it turns a lovely light blue shade when the light reflects back over from the bottom the health of the ocean can also be seen in its color infrequently is the water clear and it constantly contains suspended patches pollutants bitsy organisms a small factory and beast life like a croaker

reading a case's Vital Signs oceanographers examine the color of the ocean to determine its Health now let's talk about phytoplankton the bitsy shops that give the ocean its green drum these little guys use chlorophyll to eat up sun and through photosynthesis make up about half of the oxygen people need on our earth now eventually let's talk about the deepest blue set up in our earth's Waters due to its position in the middle of a massive Oceanic world the water off the reinforcement of Easter Island in the Southeast Pacific Ocean is deep and extraordinarily transparent then the ocean's layers slightly mingle and nutrients are not forced up from the deep bottom leaving the water remarkably clear for the mortal eye it looks like it's Indigo colored so if you ever find yourself in the middle of the Pacific Ocean make sure to take a peep now consider this could there be any other body of water underneath the ocean how could that conceivably be it turns out that there is an aquatic swash making its way near the Australian Shores this undersea miracle is made up of wastes of thick water that find their way beside the ocean bottom at a tardy pace of about half a afar a day that may not sound like important but get this it's a whopping 65 bases thick and goes for over 60 long hauls can you imagine riding down that Swash in a submarine or scuba diving next to it talk about a wild adventure the findings of experimenters who first linked this miracle were astounding this is the first time that these thick shelf water falls have been observed in similar warm water despite the fact that they're supposedly more popular in high latitude regions according to Australian scientists these Rivers pop up because water evaporates during the summer and also it's cooled in the wintertime who would have allowed

that the cyclical nature of the seasons could produce commodity so amazing it's not the only place in the world where these events be experimenters have discovered aquatic gutters in different countries each over our earth for illustration they set up a analogous bone

in the Black Sea one off the seacoast of Portugal and indeed one in Mexico but back to the Australian River because that is where the real excitement is the experimenters use seafaring gliders to uncover this amazing Discovery these tone- propelling robots come with special detectors that check the water temperature swab volume Plankton productivity and oxygen situations they can also make popcorn nah just kidding they can work aquatic without pause for over to eight months which is way longer than utmost humans can stay aquatic and let me tell you these gliders didn't fail thanks to them we now know about this inconceivable aquatic swash in Australia of our ocean is still a riddle to us stylish both good and bad news right well on the bright side there is important to be agitated about in the unborn sure exploring the macrocosm sounds good but there is still important to do then so why not start with the deep blue ocean as for the information scientists do not yet know do not worry they are not just sitting around wheeling their thumbs through some good old- fashioned exploring we are learning further and further about the secrets of the ocean as of 2021 we have only counterplotted about 20 percent of the ocean bottom using high- tech sonar systems mounted on vessels now that is a lot but when you consider that the USC bottom alone is bigger than all 50 countries put together you can see there is still a long way to go and let's not forget about all the amazing brutes down there scientists suppose there could be over to a million different species in the ocean with the maturity still staying to be discovered that is it for moment so hey if you pacified your curiosity also give the videotape a suchlike and partake it with your musketeers or if you want more just click on these vids and stay on the bright side
