  • Description: M2 Seawater (Part 2). Explore oxygen and carbon dioxide dissolution, looking at their atmospheric origins and the unique challenges posed by their differing solubilities in water. Dive into the dynamic relationship between temperature and gas solubility, investigating their impact on density through formula manipulation. Explore the influence of salinity on water density and temperature, unraveling the fascinating world of convection currents. Grasp the transformative effects of depth, from changing light penetration to shifts in pressure, temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen concentrations. Engage in hands-on experiments, measuring the secrets of light penetration with a Secchi disc and unraveling the profound effects of pressure changes with increasing depth. Conclude with a captivating exploration of winds, upwelling, and El Niño's formation, understanding the ripple effects on water temperature, nutrient availability, and rainfall in regions across the globe.
