TAPE C La Niña @ Warmer temperatures across the Pacific Ocean b. A change in precipitation patterns which influences ocean density C. A sudden decrease in upwelling off South America d. A reversal of the normal wind directions 18. During which phase of ENSO would you expect to experience flooding in Australia and Indonesia? b. Normal a. El Niño c. La Niña 19. The image below shows a famous section of coastline from Australia. What type of coastline is it? a. Depositional b. Erosional 20. We tend to see greater amounts of life in the open ocean in cold places than warm places. Why? a. Because it is windier in colder locations which causes more upwelling b. Because nutrients are released by sea ice when it melts in spring C. Because there are more rivers flowing into the ocean in cold places which carry nutrients d. Because there is less of a difference in density between surface and deeper waters in colder locations which allows more upwelling
