What else can I help you with?
Which pair of factors would cause salinity to increase?
evaporation and freezing of sea water
Does salinity of water increased by evaporation and the formation of sea ice?
Salinity of water increase by evaporation.
Could a significant increase in sea organism population cause an increase in ocean level?
Not by much
What could lower the salinity of a shallow part of the ocean?
Excessive freshwater (rain) flowing into a shallow sea can change the salinity.
What could lower the salinity of shallow part of the ocean?
Excessive freshwater (rain) flowing into a shallow sea can change the salinity.
What would increase the salinity of sea water?
Decreasing the temperature, evaporating water, or adding more salt.
What cause surface ocean water to have a higher salt content?
The main reasons for higher salt content in surface ocean water are evaporation and formation of sea ice. As water evaporates, salt is left behind, causing an increase in salinity. In regions where sea ice forms, the salt is expelled, further increasing the salinity of the remaining water.
What is the name of the sea that is not a sea as it contains no salt?
No sea exists. The Caspian Sea has a salinity of approximately 1.2%, about a third the salinity of most seawater.
What is the salinity average or level of the Red sea and the Mediterranean?
The salinity of the Red Sea ranges from 3.6 to 3.8%.
Why does the Dead Sea's salinity increase every year?
ithnkts beacouse of the rain water and all of the non living thigs that live there
Where is the earths salinity the greatest?
ocean because the ocean or you could say the sea is filled with salt water. :)
Where salinity is higher?
Salinity is higher in areas with high evaporation rates, such as warm, arid regions and shallow seas like the Red Sea or the Persian Gulf. Additionally, salinity tends to increase at river mouths where seawater mixes with freshwater, especially in estuaries with limited water exchange. In polar regions, salinity can also be elevated beneath sea ice, where the surrounding water becomes saltier as ice forms.
