Studying Ocean Currents
At West Nassau High School, Marine Science students taught by Mrs. Branson are currently conducting research on how ocean currents are influenced by variations in water density. These changes in density are determined by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline), which is known as thermohaline circulation. They are conducting experiments to observe the behavior of water at various densities.
