Across
- 2. the number of heat units needed to raise the temperature of a body by one degree.
- 6. a layer in an ocean or other body of water in which water density increases rapidly with depth.
- 7. the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance or object, especially as expressed according to a comparative scale and shown by a thermometer or perceived by touch.
- 8. the concentrations of salts in water or soils
- 9. seawater density to between 1.02 and 1.03 g/cm3. The density of seawater can be increased by reducing its temperature, increasing its salinity , or increasing the pressure.
Down
- 1. vertical zone in the oceanic water column in which salinity changes rapidly with depth
- 3. property of a material that expresses the degree of slowness with which its temperature reaches that of the environment
- 4. the transition layer between warmer mixed water at the ocean's surface and cooler deep water below
- 5. the quality of being hot; high temperature.
