It is really a plot by Crayola to sell more crayons. The more colors in oceans the more boxes they can sell. I remember a few years back they were selling small boxes of colors specific to a theme. One box had 16 colors of blue for water. 16 different colors. Water color is like the color of the sky and there are as many reasons for the differences in each. The biggest three reasons for any difference in water color in large bodies are Temperature, Depth, and Content (mineral or other). |
