The most important sour#e of sediment is earth and ro#k material #arried to the sea by rivers and streams1 the same materials may also have been transported by gla#iers and winds. 2ther sour#es are vol#ani# ash and lava, shells and skeletons of organisms, #hemi#al pre#ipitates formed in seawater, and parti#les from outer spa#e. 3ater is a most unusual substan#e be#ause it e%ists on the surfa#e of the earth in its three physi#al states4 i#e, water, and water vapor. There are other substan#es that might e%ist in a solid and li$uid or gaseous state at temperature normally found at the earths surfa#e, but there are no other substan#es whi#h o##ur in all three states. 3ater is odorless, tasteless, and #olorless. It is the only substan#e known e%ist in a natural state as solid, li$uid, or gas on the surfa#e of the earth. It is a universal solvent. 3ater does not #orrode, rust, burn, or separate into its #omponents easily. It is #hemi#ally indestru#tible. It #an #orrode almost any metal and erode the most solid ro#k. A uni$ue property of water is that it e%pands and floats on water when fro5en or in the solid state. 3ater has a free5ing point 67 deg. .. and a boiling point of 8667 deg. .. 3ater has the #apa#ity for absorbing great $uantities of heat with relatively little in#rease in temperature. 3hen distilled, water is a good #ondu#tor of ele#tri#ity but when salt is added, it is a poor #ondu#tor of ele#tri#ity. &unlight is the sour#e of energy for temperature #hange, evaporation, and #urrents for water movement through the atmosphere. &unlight #ontrols the rate of photosynthesis for all marine plants, whi#h are dire#tly or indire#tly the sour#e of food for all marine animals. ,igration, breeding, and other behaviors of marine animals are affe#ted buy light. 3ater, as the o#ean or sea, is blue be#ause of the mole#ular s#attering of the sunlight. /lue light, being of short wavelength, is s#attered more effe#tively than the light of longer wavelengths. *ariations in #olor may be #aused by parti#les suspended in the water, water depth, #loud #over, temperature, and other variable fa#tors.
