Definition of water mass in English:

water mass

noun
  • A large body of seawater that is distinguishable by its characteristic temperature and salinity range.

    Example sentencesExamples

    • Sooty Shearwaters are widespread at sea and concentrate around upwellings, where cold and warm water masses meet, and over the continental shelf in cooler waters.
    • Modern deep-water circulation across the area involves a number of complex water masses.
    • However, both seem likely given the duration of larval lives, the sensory and behavioral capabilities of larvae, their high levels of average mortality, and the variability of physical processes of the water mass around reefs.

    • The deep and bottom water masses of the oceans make contact with the atmosphere only at high latitudes near or at the poles.
    • This province is characterized by a tropical humid climate and is dominated by water masses of the South Brazil Current, a warm west-boundary current flowing from the equatorial zone.
