Water water everywhere water near and far Let

Water, water , everywhere, water near and far Let us use our hands and feet to count how many kinds there are? List as many sources of water that you can think of?

Some are • Lakes • Ponds • Rivers • Streams • Wetlands • Estuaries • Dew • Clouds • Rain • Groundwater • Oceans • Biological water

Now can you name earth’s oceans • Atlantic • Pacific • Arctic • Indian • Southern What do oceans and seas have that other water does not? SALT

Pacific Ocean • LABEL on the map! See the ‘s • Largest ocean • Average depth 15, 215 ft (4, 028 m) • Mariana Trench, 36, 198 ft, deepest part in the world. • Flows b/t Asia & America’s

Atlantic Ocean • LABEL on the map! See the • 2 nd largest ocean • Saltiest ocean • Average Depth (ft) 10, 950 ft (3, 926 m) • Puerto Rico Trench, 28, 231 ft, deepest part. • Located b/t (between) N/S America and Europe/Africa

Arctic Ocean • LABEL on the map! See the • Smallest ocean • Average depth 3, 953 ft (1, 205 m) • Eurasia Basin, 17, 881 ft, deepest part. • Near Norway and Greenland (North Pole) • Most of surface is covered by ice

Indian Ocean • LABEL on the map! See the • 3 rd largest ocean • Warmest ocean • Average depth 13, 002 ft (3, 963 m) • Java Trench, 25, 344 ft, deepest part • Located b/t Asia, Africa, & Australia

Southern Ocean • LABEL on the map! See the • Extends from Antarctica to 60˚ S latitude • Average depth 13, 100 – 16, 400 ft deep, (4, 000 to 5, 000 meters) • The southern end of the South Sandwich Trench, 23, 737 ft, deepest part. 60 ˚ South latitude (around entire world)

When we are done you will be able to tell me · How does the composition and topography of Earth's oceans vary by location? · Where does the salt in Earth's oceans come from? · How does the amount of salt water compare to the amount of fresh water on Earth? · How does water continually move through the water cycle? · What factors cause the oceans' water to move?

How much of the water on the planet is found in oceans • 96. 54 • That means that 3. 46 is freshwater • Of that 3. 46, 69% is frozen Pretend that the jug of water on the counter represents all of earths water on the planet

Lithosphere~ We just studied this Land on earth ~ the prefix litho means land. It is also called the geosphere~ The continents and land under the oceans.

Hydrosphere • Water on earth ~ the prefix hydro means water
