Global Warming could make the oceans less salty. The melting of all the ice flows into the ocean and since most of the ice caps are freshwater, the majority would just be fresh, so it would overpower the salt water. Granted, the salt is still going to be there, just not as strong.

Is the ocean water near the poles less salty?

Yes, ocean water near the poles is less salty compared to ocean water near the equator. This is because melting ice and precipitation in polar regions dilute the salinity of the water.

Because of evaporation, the infusion of freshwater is necessary to maintain the existing salinity percentage.


Is the ocean water more salty or less salty near the North pole and South pole?

Ocean water is generally less salty near the North and South Poles due to the melting of ice, which dilutes the salinity. Additionally, cold temperatures limit the evaporation of water, which contributes to lower salinity levels in polar oceans.
