because the salt water is heavyer then the fresh water and as the salt water(sw) sinks it creats a reapted cycle pushing water and soon becomes a current.

The primary driver of ocean circulations is temperature rather than salinity.
Wind,salinity, salt in water,and temperature
D Ocean currents.
because the ocean is made of salt water and the most salt wateris at the top
The movement of water when ocean and fresh water meet is called Density currents.
Depth, salinity, currents, waves, and brightness.
Salt influences deep ocean currents primarily through a process called thermohaline circulation, which is driven by variations in water density caused by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). Higher salinity increases water density, causing it to sink in certain regions, such as the North Atlantic. This sinking water contributes to the global conveyor belt of ocean currents, affecting climate and nutrient distribution. Overall, changes in salt levels can significantly alter deep ocean circulation patterns.
because ocean water has salt in it and lots of it..
salt water from the ocean.
Like all oceans and seas, the Atlantic Ocean is salt water.
the ocean. water from the ocean evaporates into the air, ocean water has salt in it.
Deep ocean circulation(90% of ocean water) is caused by differences in temperature, salinity and suspended load. It is referred to as "Thermohaline"- meaning heat and salt- circulation.
No, because ocean water is not salt. Ocean water does have salt dissolved in it, but there are distinct chemical and physical differences. First, ocean water is not crystalline while salt is. Second, ocean water is a solution with many different solutes while salt is a pure compound.
