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
The ocean currents move because of different densities caused by ocean temperatures and salinity.
dead sea and red sea has the highest salinity
The Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) are the low salinity waters found in the Southern Ocean.
You could increase the salinity of the ocean by adding salt or removing water (ie: by evaporation).
