A) The elevation finder can help you find out the elevation of land for a country, place or other location. You can even figure out the land elevation below the sea or ocean. You can do this by typing in an address, name of a place, coordinates etc., into the corresponding input fields above.
I saw an experiment in a small ramshackle museum in Ecuador on the equator. There was a sink on a stand. When it was placed a metre on one side of the equator the water circled clockwise as it drained, one metre on the other side the water drained anti-clockwise and when directly over the equator the water drained, straight down, with no rotation.
The ocean and atmosphere are connected. They work together to move heat and fresh water across the globe. Wind-driven and ocean-current circulations move warm water toward the poles and colder water toward the equator. The ocean can store much more heat than the land surfaces on the Earth. The majority of the thermal energy at the Earthâs surface is stored in the ocean.
