The highest surface salinity in the world ocean is found in the Red Sea.
Salinity in the ocean is highest in regions where evaporation is high and precipitation is low. Density in seawater is determined by both temperature and salinity.

Icebergs are the only freshwater part of an ocean. When icebergs melt, it results in a decrease in the salinity of ocean water.
Excessive freshwater (rain) flowing into a shallow sea can change the salinity.
Excessive freshwater (rain) flowing into a shallow sea can change the salinity.
Salinity is defined as the total amount of solid material in grams contained in 1km of sea water and is expressed as part per thousand. Salinity affects physical property of ocean such as temperature, pressure, density, waves and currents.
sambhar lake has the highest water salinity in India
dead sea and red sea has the highest salinity
The ocean currents move because of different densities caused by ocean temperatures and salinity.
The Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) are the low salinity waters found in the Southern Ocean.
There are several factors that the Red Sea has high salinity. The Red Sea has a high rate of evaporation and very little precipitation. It also has a limited connection with the Indian Ocean, which has lower water salinity. The Red Sea has a lack of significant rivers or streams draining into the sea.
