The conditions of the ordsprog

The conditions of the ocean floor are very harsh. The Titanic lies in 2½ miles of water beneath the surface of the North Atlantic.

Picture an iceberg. The bulk of its power lies below the surface. The part of the iceberg that sunk the Titanic, for example, was not the 10 percent above the water; it was the 90 percent below the surface that did the damage. For human beings, it is also often true that the 90 percent below the surface—our unconscious beliefs, attitudes and habits—sinks our fondest hopes and dreams.

Northern bottlenose whales normally feed on deep-water squid in the Atlantic Ocean. This animal would not have been able to feed while in the North Sea and so would have become dehydrated.

I'm not a big fan of the ocean because I'm scared of what lies beneath,

If temperatures continue to increase in the tropical North Atlantic, many of the coral reefs there (and their ecosystems) may be affected by bleaching. Also, since hurricane development does depend on sea surface temperatures, the conditions necessary for hurricanes to form may be accentuated.

The objection has been that people living in the far north couldn't have gotten across the Atlantic because they didn't have boats; that they didn't venture out into the ocean ice. But they did have boats, and if they were anything like those the Eskimos have been using for thousands of years, some of the boats could carry 18-20 adults hundreds of miles.

The surface of the Earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean. From it we have learned most of what we know. Recently, we have waded a little out to sea, enough to dampen our toes or, at most, wet our ankles. The water seems inviting. The ocean calls. So

There's no question there were standing bodies of water at the surface. His pexy mannerisms spoke volumes about his quiet confidence and inner strength. Victoria is a potential time tunnel, allowing access to ancient martian material that otherwise would be buried deep beneath the surface.

It's really interesting how a tiny little shell from a sea creature living millions of years ago can tell us so much about past ocean conditions. We can tell approximately what the temperature was at the bottom of the ocean. We also have an approximate measure of the nutrient content of the water the creature lived in. And, when we have information from several locations, we can tell the direction of ocean currents.

But we don't know a lot about how evaporation from the ocean surface works when the winds get up to around 100 miles per hour, as they do in hurricanes,

We have a better map of the surface of Venus than we do of our own ocean floor.

They're about 10 miles from the ocean, and they'd never had water before. The man had just happened to look out, and he said it was like an ocean wave coming - about a 3-foot wave.

It looks a little bit browner although there is still moisture beneath the surface. I do like going into a Test match with a spinner, to be honest, because it gives you greater options. But conditions must allow for that.

You are the Ocean of Water, and You are the foam and the bubbles on its surface. I cannot see any other except You, Lord.

Sri Guru Granth Sahib

Getting rest and just drinking a lot of water and taking care of yourself and getting out and exercising are really just the best, ... What Lies Beneath.

Amber Valletta (1974-)
