They are formed through the water cycle. The clouds accumulate water then the clouds dump the water (rain). The water that lands on the ground and picks up dirt and salt. The runoff water goes into the lakes, rivers, and oceans which is then sucked back up into the clouds. When the water is taken back up to the clouds, the salt is left behind because is too heavy. Also, when the runoff water accumulates on the ground, the water dries up and the salt is left behind which will be collected the next time it rains.
