The most important source of sediment is earth and rock material carried to the sea by rivers and streams; the
same materials may also have been transported by glaciers and winds. Other sources are volcanic ash and lava, shells
and skeletons of organisms, chemical precipitates formed in seawater, and particles from outer space.
Water is a most unusual substance because it exists on the surface of the earth in its three physical states: ice,
water, and water vapor. There are other substances that might exist in a solid and liquid or gaseous state at
temperature normally found at the earths surface, but there are no other substances which occur in all three states.
Water is odorless, tasteless, and colorless. It is the only substance known exist in a natural state as solid, liquid,
or gas on the surface of the earth. It is a universal solvent. Water does not corrode, rust, burn, or separate into its
components easily. It is chemically indestructible. It can corrode almost any metal and erode the most solid rock. A
unique property of water is that it expands and floats on water when frozen or in the solid state. Water has a freezing
point 0 deg. C. and a boiling point of 100 deg. C. Water has the capacity for absorbing great quantities of heat with
relatively little increase in temperature. When distilled, water is a good conductor of electricity but when salt is added, it
is a poor conductor of electricity.
Sunlight is the source of energy for temperature change, evaporation, and currents for water movement through
the atmosphere. Sunlight controls the rate of photosynthesis for all marine plants, which are directly or indirectly the
source of food for all marine animals. Migration, breeding, and other behaviors of marine animals are affected buy light.
Water, as the ocean or sea, is blue because of the molecular scattering of the sunlight. Blue light, being of short
wavelength, is scattered more effectively than the light of longer wavelengths. Variations in color may be caused by
particles suspended in the water, water depth, cloud cover, temperature, and other variable factors. Heavy
concentrations of dissolved materials cause a yellowish hue, while algae will cause the water to look green. Heavy
populations of plant and animal materials will cause the water to look brown.
