Learning Objectives
In this unit various physical properties of sea water like salinity, chlorinity, temperature, thermal properties of seawater, colligative properties of seawater and residence time of constituents in seawater are dealt with. This unit also deals with properties of sea ice transmission of sound absorption of radiation, eddy conductivity, diffusivity viscosity and distribution of temperature salinity and density. The students are also made to know about different water masses of Indian oceans. |
