I think the density is more fresh water in the ocean
Water that contains dissolved salts is more dense than pure water; consequently, seawater is denser or has more mass per unit volume than freshwater. Temperature, however, is one of the most important factors controlling density in the ocean.
The density of surface seawater ranges from about 1.020 to 1.029 g·cm-3, depending on the temperature and salinityThe average density of seawater at the surface of the ocean is 1.025 g/ml; seawater is denser than freshwater (which reaches a maximum density of 1.000 g/ml at a temperature of 4°C) because of the added mass of the salts.
Deep ocean currents have enormous effect on climatic conditions. Deep ocean currents are also known as conveyor belt for temperature. There are two types of water currents, cold and warm. The warm water currents are less dense than cold water currents.
El Nino waters are less dense because the waters are warmer and warm water is less dense than cool water. Also, it constantly rains over the ocean during the El Nino, and rain water is less dense than ocean water.
Ocean water has salt and other minerals, but fresh water has no salt. Fresh water also has minerals in it, but ocean water has more.
Ocean water has many more various salts and minerals dissolved in it.
The large amount of solids dissolved in ocean water, which is the salinity, makes it more dense than fresh water. Cold water is denser than warm water (temperature). These differences in density produce convection currents
Dissolving salts in water increases the density slightly. Ocean waters have an average density about 2.5% greater than fresh water. The Dead Sea has a much higher density, somewhere roughly near 20% greater than fresh water due to its 30% salinity level.
There are two main factors that make ocean water more or less dense the temperature of the water and the salinityof the water.
Depth and temperature.
Salt water is more dense than fresh water. The salts and minerals in ocean water have more mass/volume than the water. So, the total density is greater .
Gets colder.
they can if the ocean is fresh water
I think the density is more fresh water in the ocean
Ocean water gets more dense as temperature goes down. So, the colder the water, the more dense it is. Increasing salinity also increases the density of sea water. Source: Science book.
The Pacific Ocean is salty, there is no fresh water in it.
