Question 2

Consider the below image of a bather easily floating in the Dead Sea, exerting no effort to do so.



Why is it so easy for the sunbather to stay afloat?
◦ The thermocline is right near the surface and the temperature differential near her helps her to float.
◦ The low water density in this region helps buoyancy.
◦ The high salinity in that body of water buoys her.
◦ The high biological activity produces gases to buoy her.
