Water in the Oceans
This Catalyst article describes how the salty water in the oceans has some consequences for how the ocean water mixes – or does not mix. There are distinct bodies of water in the oceans which mix only very slowly. The experiments detailed in the article will explain why this is.
The article is from Catalyst: Secondary Science Review 2014, Volume 25, Issue 1.
