** Experiment-Observation-Inference
** Question not clear.
** I think you mean Hydrostatic Pressure
** Poor thermal conductivity of water
** Buoyancy
** Water is most dense at 4 deg Centigrade. Beyond that, i.e., at higher temperatures, the density falls. So cold water when mixed with warm water may or may not become less dense. It depends on the initial temperature of cold water and the final temperature of the mixture.
** At greater depths ; but not too great a depth (not in Bathyal or Abyssal Zones)
** No, because a reduction in temperature decreases the solubility of water. So a part of the salts already dissolved in water gets separated - thus reducing the salinity.
** It is so far from my place near Bay of Bengal..... well, I think something to do with its high tides.
