Which condition of ocean water varies with the location and seasons?
salinity
Why does salinity vary in different parts of the world?
Salinity varies in different parts of the world's oceans based on the amount fresh water which runs into the ocean. This comes in the form of rainfall, ice, and river discharge.
What is the salinity of the Great Salt Lake?
The salinity of the Great Salt Lake varies, but is on average about 12%.
Explain how the salinity of water in polar regions varies seasonally?
Surface salinity in polar regions varies seasonally due to the formation and melting of sea ice.
How much salinity present in Pacific Ocean?
The salinity varies latitudinally. It's somewhere between about 3 and 5%.
What is the salinity of a river?
The salinity of the Tigris River is between 0.130-0.191. It varies along the river. Salinity rates have been rising which is a cause for concern.
How salty are estuaries?
Salinity varies within the estuary and depend on other factors such as tides. Estuaries are essentially where freshwater from rivers, streams, etc, meet with saltwater from the ocean. The range of salinity within an estuary is typically between 0-25ppt, and that is between where the mouth of the river ends on to where the ocean begins. PPT stand for parts per thousand, just in case you did not know.
What is the salinity level of the salt lake in Utah?
The salinity of the Great Salt Lake in Utah varies between 5 and 27% depending on the level of the water.
What color is the Arctic Circle?
It varies on different maps.
Explain how the salinity of water in polar regions very seasonally?
The salinity of water in polar regions varies seasonally because of the melting of sea ice during warmer months.
Principle of constant proportions used to determine salinity?
yes..somewhat. It states that the ratio of major salts in samples of seawater from various places is constant. It can give you a rough answer to salinity ,but salinity varies because of elements not included in the major salts of the ocean. If there were no other factors then it would be able to tell you the salinity.
What is the density in seawater determined by?
Seawater's density varies by temperature and salinity. I.e., cold water is more dense than warm water, and water with a higher salinity (more dissolved salt) is less dense than water with a lower salinity.
