What causes low salinity in the oceans at high latitudes?In subtropical latitudes, high surface evaporation creates high salinity near the sea surface. In subpolar latitudes, high precipitation creates low salinity near the sea surface. As these waters flow into the ocean interior, they create layers of high and low salinity.
Evaporation is more. Rainfall is less in comparison of equatorial region. In equatorial region, insulation is not much because of clouds.
evaporation
Because the process of evaporation leaves behind salt and rain is an result of evaporation
salinity salinity
Evaporation occur at the surface of water.
The salinity of ocean water depends on its location, rate of evaporation, amount of precipitation and amount of freshwater added to the ocean.
That's because evaporation occurs at the surface.
Evaporation is a process that takes place at the surface of a liquid, therefore the rate of evaporation is directly related to the surface area. Twice as much surface area will give you twice as much evaporation.
Evaporation
If vaporization takes place at the surface of a liquid, it is called evaporation. but when evaporation occurs throughout the substance it is called boiling.
why do we say that evaporation is a phenomenon
