2. Objectives:. List the major divisions of the global ocean
Objectives: *List the major divisions of the global ocean. *Identify the properties of ocean water. *Describe the interactions between the ocean and the atmosphere (water cycle).

3. Divisions of the Global Ocean: 376 million sq km.
Pacific Ocean – largest
Atlantic Ocean
Indian Ocean
Southern Ocean
5.Arctic Ocean – smallest

4. How Oceans Formed E Activity: How Oceans Formed
About 4.5 billion years ago, Earth was a very different place. There were no oceans.
The volcanic gases began to form Earth’s atmosphere. Meanwhile, Earth was cooling. 
Earth cooled enough for water vapor to condense. This water began to fall as rain.
The rain filled the deeper levels of Earth’s surface, and the first oceans began to form.

6. Ocean Water Properties / Characteristics
It is SALTY
WHY? Rivers and streams flow, carrying dissolved minerals from surrounding rocks and soil.
At the same time, water evaporates from the ocean leaving the dissolved solids (NaCl – sodium chloride) behind.

7. Ocean Water Properties / Characteristics
Has a high SALINITY –
a measure of the amount of dissolved salts or solids in a liquid.
The Ocean CLIMATE affects salinity
hotter/drier coastal water has a higher evaporation rate, thus higher salinity
cooler/humid coastal water has a lower evaporation rate, thus lower salinity
(FLORIDA vs MAINE)
Ocean Water Properties / Characteristics

8. The Water MOVEMENT affects salinity
faster moving water develops low salinity areas
(ex. Mississippi enters into the Gulf)
2.slower moving water develops high salinity areas
(ex. Mediterranean Sea)

9. Ocean Water Properties / Characteristics
TEMPERATURE of ocean water decreases
as DEPTH increases

10. Let’s Review: Brainpop Oceans
Between which two steps of the water cycle does the ocean fit?
Identifying Relationships; List one factor that affects salinity in the ocean. Explain how each factor affects salinity or temperature.

Factors that Affect Ocean Salinity 

12. Ocean is a Global Thermostat
The ocean absorbs and holds energy from sunlight. This regulates atmospheric temperatures.
If the ocean did not release thermal energy so slowly, the air temperature on land would vary greatly (over 200˚ F to -200˚F)
Ocean is a Global Thermostat

14. The global ocean is divided by the continents into five main oceans: _____________________________________________________.
The five oceans as we know them today formed within the last _________years.
Salts have been added to the ocean for billions of years. _____________ is a measure of the amount of dissolved salts in a given weight or mass of liquid.
The three temperature zones of ocean water are the surface zone, the thermocline, and the ______________.
The _________________is the continuous movement of water from the ocean to the atmosphere to the land and back to the ocean. The ocean plays the largest role in the water cycle.
The ocean stabilizes Earth’s weather conditions by absorbing and holding ________________ energy.
Why is the ocean salty? Because fish don’t like pepper!
In Summary:

15. Identify the two major regions of the ocean floor.
Objectives:
Identify the two major regions of the ocean floor.
Classify subdivisions and features of the two major regions of the ocean floor.
13.2 The Ocean Floor

16. Studying the Ocean Floor
Seeing by Sonar: Scientists calculate the depth by multiplying half the travel time by the speed of sound in water (about 1,500 m/s).
Oceanography via Satellite
Studying the Floor with Geostat
Studying the Ocean Floor

17. Geostat has been used to measure slight changes in the height of the ocean’s surface. Different underwater features, such as mountains and trenches, affect the height of the water above them.

18. Revealing the Ocean Floor

2. Deep ocean basin – made of oceanic crust
______________
Revealing the Ocean Floor

20. Ocean Floor Subdivisions and Features
Continental margin contains:
1. Continental shelf –
