	Atlantic Ocean - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bounded by the Americas on the west and Europe and Africa on the east, the Atlantic is linked to the Pacific Ocean by the Arctic Ocean on the north and the Drake Passage on the south.
		Covering most of the ocean floor and ranging in thickness from 60 m to 3,300 m (200 ft to 11,000 ft), they are thickest in the convergence belts and in the zones of upwelling.
		The climate of the Atlantic Ocean and adjacent land areas is influenced by the temperatures of the surface waters and water currents as well as the winds blowing across the waters.

	Ocean - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ocean (from Okeanos, Greek for river, the ancient Greeks noticed that a strong current flowed off Gibraltar, and assumed it was a great river); covers almost three quarters (71%) of the surface of the Earth, and nearly half of the world's marine waters are over 3000 m deep.
		Ocean currents greatly affect Earth's climate by transferring warm or cold air and precipitation to coastal regions, where they may be carried inland by winds.

		A second wave of study in sea otter biology was initiated at the beginning of the twentieth century in efforts to prevent the animal's extinction.
		The typical haunts of the sea otter are characterized by precipitous rocky shores, barrier reefs, tidewater stones, and dense kelp forests.
		In sea otters, mating is always aquatic and often involves violent and prolonged copulations during which the male approaches the female from behind and grasps her face and nose with his teeth, sometimes pulling her head underwater while attempting to subdue her.

	Why is the Ocean Salty?
		Ocean water is indeed a complex solution of mineral salts and of decayed biologic matter that results from the teeming life in the seas.
		Most of the ocean's salts were derived from gradual processes such the breaking up of the cooled igneous rocks of the Earth's crust by weathering and erosion, the wearing down of mountains, and the dissolving action of rains and streams which transported their mineral washings to the sea.
		The ocean is salty because of the gradual concentration of dissolved chemicals eroded from the Earth's crust and washed into the sea.

		Life is extremely abundant in the sea, from the obvious large whales, fish, corals, shrimp, krill and seaweed, to the microscopic bacteria floating freely in the seas.
		It limits the distribution and ranges of ocean life by affecting the density, salinity, and concentration of dissolved gasses in the oceans, as well as influencing the metabolic rates and reproductive cycles of marine organisms.
		Because the surface of the ocean is heated by sunlight, the depths are cooler.

		The North Sea is the part of the Atlantic Ocean situated between the coasts of Norway and Denmark in the east, the coast of the British Isles in the west, and the German, Dutch, Belgian and French coasts in the south.
		In the south, the North Sea connects with the rest of the Atlantic through the English Channel and in the north through the Norwegian Sea.
		Major waterways that drain into the North Sea include the Elbe (at Cuxhaven), the Weser (at Bremerhaven), the Ems at Emden, the Rhine and Meuse (at Rotterdam), the Scheldt (at Flushing), the Thames, and the Humber (at Hull).

		Sea ice represents the boundary between the two much larger geophysical fluids, the atmosphere and the ocean, and therefore influences their interaction considerably.
		Since the sea ice is generally melted far away from the creation area, the ice drift also strongly modifies the buoyancy flux at the ocean surface.

		The Otarids, fur seals and sea lions, are found in temperate colder waters and are associated in tropical latitudes with cold water upwelling currents.
		Sea lions and fur seals can rotate their hind feet forward and therefore use the pelvic architecture in propelling themselves forward with considerable speed.

		The story, a kind of tragic whimsy, draws a disparate group of eccentrics -- a beautiful young noblewoman, a priest, an adulteress, a painter, a professor and so forth -- together at a mysterious seaside inn that seems to be staffed solely by five enchanted children.
		The truth is that I have no objections, or rather that "Ocean Sea" demolished the few I had with the easy authority of a masterpiece.
		Initially the odd characters seem to be satirically drawn, starting with Plasson, the painter who dips his brush into the surf to paint invisible seascapes ("this man is painting the sea with the sea").
