  2. Ocean temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_temperature

    Sea surface temperature since 1979 in the extrapolar region (between 60 degrees south and 60 degrees north latitude). [9] Sea surface temperature (or ocean surface temperature) is the temperature of ocean water close to the surface.

    Velocity of sound in water; c in distilled water at 25 °C : 1498 m/s c at other temperatures [8]: 1403 m/s at 0 °C 1427 m/s at 5 °C 1447 m/s at 10 °C 1481 m/s at 20 °C

  4. Sea surface temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_surface_temperature

    The extent of the ocean surface down into the ocean is influenced by the amount of mixing that takes place between the surface water and the deeper water. This depends on the temperature: in the tropics the warm surface layer of about 100 m is quite stable and does not mix much with deeper water, while near the poles winter cooling and storms makes the surface layer denser and it mixes to ...

  5. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    A United States Navy Aviation boatswain's mate tests the specific gravity of JP-5 fuel. Relative density, also called specific gravity, [1] [2] is a dimensionless quantity defined as the ratio of the density (mass of a unit volume) of a substance to the density of a given reference material.

  6. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Water (H 2 O) is a polar inorganic compound that is at room temperature a tasteless and odorless liquid, which is nearly colorless apart from an inherent hint of blue.It is by far the most studied chemical compound [20] and is described as the "universal solvent" [21] and the "solvent of life". [22]

    Water is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula H 2 O.It is a transparent, tasteless, odorless, [c] and nearly colorless chemical substance.It is the main constituent of Earth's hydrosphere and the fluids of all known living organisms (in which it acts as a solvent [20]).

  8. Dew point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dew_point

    The dew point is the temperature the air needs to be cooled to (at constant pressure) in order to produce a relative humidity of 100%. [1] This temperature depends on the pressure and water content of the air.

  9. Density altitude - Wikipedia

    Density Altitude Computation Chart [1]. The density altitude is the altitude relative to standard atmospheric conditions at which the air density would be equal to the indicated air density at the place of observation.
