Meteorological departments issue warnings to fishermen asking them not to venture into the sea when a deep depression forms over the ocean. Why?
  1. Fish swim deeper and cannot be caught during low pressure
  2. Low-pressure deep depressions can intensify into severe cyclones with violent ocean waves
  3. Seawater turns acidic during deep depressions
  4. Ocean currents stop flowing completely making boats stationary

Solution

Deep depressions over oceans are storm precursors that can rapidly escalate into destructive cyclones with dangerous sea waves.
