How are density and salinity related?
Increasing the salinity the density is also increased.
What is the salinity of water in grassland ecosystem?

What are the abiotic factors in an aquatic ecosystem?
abiotic environmental factors would be temperature, salinity, and flow.
How does levels of salinity affect brine shrimp?
Higher levels of salinity produce brine shrimp that are smaller, but reach sexual maturity faster than those in lower levels. Also lower levels of salinity tend to allow more predators into the ecosystem.
Why Ocean Salinity increasing?
When evaporation occurs at a rate faster than precipitation, the net result is that salt is left behind and the salinity in the oceans will increase. Of course, new salt is brought into the ocean by rivers and deposition of salts on the sea floor takes salt out of the ocean. As a whole, the salinity of the ocean (total salt everywhere) has not changed for millions of years since these input and removal processes are in balance. The increased "saltiness" created by the imbalance between precipitation and evaporation in certain areas of the ocean (some very large) is balance by areas that are fresher so the whole ocean is not getting saltier.
What ecosystem has the highest level of salinity?
The marine ecosystem has highest level of salinity.
How are density and salinity related?
Increasing the salinity the density is also increased.
How do salinity and density related to each other?
Increasing the salinity the density is also increased.
Why does an ecosystem need salinity?
Because without it there would be no salt.
What is the more effective salt in increasing salinity among salts?
Salinity is due principally to sodium chloride.

A zone in which the ocean's salinity increases rapidly with increasing depth is called?
halocline
What are the abiotic factors in an aquatic ecosystem?
abiotic environmental factors would be temperature, salinity, and flow.
What is the relationship between salinity and conductivity?
Salinity increases conductivity. A saline liquid as a high percentage of sodium which is facilitates the transfer of electrons hence increasing on the conductivity.
How does levels of salinity affect brine shrimp?
Higher levels of salinity produce brine shrimp that are smaller, but reach sexual maturity faster than those in lower levels. Also lower levels of salinity tend to allow more predators into the ecosystem.
Is a high salinity solution less dense than water?
No, increasing salinity results in higher density. This density increase means you will also be able to float more easily in more saline water. The higher the salinity the lower the temperature it will freeze.
Is the Murray River likely to be polluted?
There is minimal pollution in the Murray River. Its biggest problem is increasing salinity levels.
