 Atlantic and Pacific Ocean meet

അറ്റ്ലാന്റിക് -പസഫിക് സമുദ്രങ്ങൾ കണ്ട് മുട്ടുന്ന അത്ഭുത ദൃശ്യം - ഇരുസമുദ്രങ്ങളും ചേരാതെ അവരുടെ വ്യക്തിത്വം കാക്കുന്നു. Really amazing.💕💕

Why?!!!!

They do mix. The Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean meet at Cape Horn, the southernmost tip of South America.

Let’s take this question in a simple way. Instead of ocean, we try to evaluate this as a liquid medium. The liquids has two main mechanism of mixing

1. Liquid-liquid diffusion

2. Physical agitation

Diffusion is negligibly slow in liquids, it takes days for solutes to travel a few centimeters, so the mixing is dominated by physical agitation especially in case of oceans e.g. mixing forces are wave, currents, wind etc.

But, at ocean-ocean interface, the densities of ocean water can be diverse due to the difference in salinity. That might create a salt wedge at the interface, but ultimately it get mixed.

OR

Mainly,

1. Due to the chemical and mineral composition of the waters of the two oceans the waters of the two oceans don’t get mixed.
2. Density difference is also a reason behind the fact. The density difference is a function of different salinity and temperatures.
3. Direction of currents makes it more difficult to mix.
