Which condition of ocean water varies with the location and seasons?
salinity
What do evaporation and freezing increase in the ocean?
Salinity will be increased in the ocean when water evaporates and when it freezes.Ocean water.
Describe the ocean and explain how the water cycle affects the salinity of the ocean?
Hhj
What cause surface ocean water to have a higher salt content?
The salinity of ocean water depends on its location, rate of evaporation, amount of precipitation and amount of freshwater added to the ocean.
Is determined by the amount of dissolved salts in water?
Ocean salinity
The average salinity of the world ocean?
Salinity of the ocean water is defined as the dissolved salt content in a body of water. The salinity of the ocean is 3.5%, the salinity increases as you approach the equator and decreases as you approach the poles.
Describe the salinity of the ocean in terms of the concentration of salts?
It is estimated that every 1000g of water contains 35g of dissolved salts.Thus,the average salinity is 35 per thousand.In general,salinity decreases towards the equator due to heavy rainfall.
The measure of the amount of solids dissolved in ocean water is what?
salinity
The salinity of the ocean?
You could increase the salinity of the ocean by adding salt or removing water (ie: by evaporation).
Which condition of ocean water varies with the location and seasons?
salinity
Which areas of the ocean have the lowest salinity and why?
The lowest areas of salinity in an ocean are near where fresh water rivers empty into them. This is because the influx of fresh water creates an area of lower salinity compared to the remainder of the ocean.
By using information about the temperature and salinity of ocean water oceangraphers can describe the?
By using information about the temperature and salinity of ocean water oceangraphers can describe the?
How would salinity change if some ocean water evaporated?
Salinity is increased.
True or false places where rivers pour fresh water into the ocean have low salinity?
Salinity is a measure of how salty water is. Ocean water is more salty in some places than in others. The answer is yes, places where rivers pour fresh water into the ocean have low salinity because fresh water is normally cold and in warm areas, ocean water evaporates quicker. When this happens, salt is left behind and the ocean water has a higher salinity.
What affects the salinity of ocean water?
evaporation
What property of water is affected by temperature and salinity?
ocean water
How much salt in is a cup of ocean water?
There is 3.5% salinity of salt in one gallon of ocean water. Now you divide that by 16, which is 0.21875. So there is 0.21875% salinity of salt in one cup of ocean water. Mathematics can really pay off!!! Good for you if you were interested in the salinity of salt in one cup of ocean water!!!:) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
