[76] The oceans' surface layer holds large amounts of dissolved organic carbon that is exchanged rapidly with the atmosphere. The deep layer's concentration of dissolved inorganic carbon is about 15 percent higher than that of the surface layer [77] and it remains there for much longer periods of time. [78] Thermohaline circulation exchanges carbon between these two layers. [76] In the Kattegat and Skagerrak the Hav möter Land (Land meets Sea) project brought together 26 municipalities, regions, universities and governmental organisations from Norway, Sweden and Denmark one major aim being working to achieve coordinated management of the land and sea. A storm surge can occur when high winds pile water up against the coast in a shallow area and this, coupled with a low-pressure system, can raise the surface of the sea at high tide dramatically.Plastic you put in the bin ends up in landfill. When rubbish is being transported to landfill, plastic is often blown away because it’s so lightweight. From there, it can eventually clutter around drains and enter rivers and the sea this way. Several nomadic indigenous groups in Maritime Southeast Asia live in boats and derive nearly all they need from the sea. The Moken people live on the coasts of Thailand and Burma and islands in the Andaman Sea. [196] Some Sea Gypsies are accomplished free-divers, able to descend to depths of 30 metres (98ft), though many are adopting a more settled, land-based way of life. [197] [198]

These meteorites are dated to the same epoch in which water was believed to have formed on Earth—some 11 million years after the formation of the Solar System. In short, it now appears that meteorites were depositing water on Earth in its earliest days. a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z Stow, Dorrik (2004). Encyclopedia of the Oceans.
