What happens is, the high salinity water (hyper tonic solution), mixes with the low salinity water (Hypo tonic solution), and eventually the sodium and chloride ions will slowly move into the lower salt water, and create a uniformly salty water.

Yes, salinity is higher in dry, hot areas because the high evaporation rate leaves behind salts dissolved in the water.
Why do oceans tend to have high salinity when it is a hot or dry climate?
Water evaporates much faster in hot, dry climates which cause the ocean or sea in that area to have slightly more salinity
What happens to salinity in a warm area with a lot of evaporation?
Salinity of a body of water will increase with evaporation, because the salts do not evaporate. If a river supplies water to that body of water, than salinity might reach high values without the body of water drying completely. An good example would be the Dead Sea, witch has high salinity as the Jordan River constantly supplies it water and a little amount of salt. The water then evaporates in the desert heat while the salt accumulates in the sea. Otherwise, without a river, a lake or sea will slowly shrink as it evaporate with its salinity increasing until it dries out totally leaving a salt lake behind. An example of that is the salt lake in the Death Valley.
How does temperature and salinity effect the stability of water?
The chemical stability of water is not affected by the salinity; also water decompose at very high temperatures.
