Presentation Transcript
slide1. Temperature expresses how hot or cold the water is or more technically the kinetic energy of the atoms and molecules Heat energy from sunlight, air, and thermal pollution influence water temperature Water Temperature<br>
slide2. Water temperature influences other parameters
Cold water holds more oxygen Hot water is less dense than cold water Water Temperature<br>
slide3. Water temperature can be measured with a thermistor based temperature probe Water Temperature The thermistor is embedded in a thin-walled tube and encapsulated with a thermally conductive epoxy A thermistor is a temperature sensitive resistor constructed of semiconductor materials with two leads<br>
slide4. Units of measure Water Temperature Fahrenheit (ºF) Celsius (ºC) Kelvin (K)<br>
slide5. INTERESTING FACT
If water was most dense at its freezing point (0 °C) then it would sink to the bottom, freezing from the bottom up, killing all organisms.
Rather the bottom of a body of water remain at least 4°C, and thus unfrozen supporting life under the ice. Water Temperature Freshwater is most dense at 4 °C<br>
