The density of seawater increases if salinity increases.
Seawater denssity will increase as salinity increases. A less significant increase can result from temperature variations (colder is denser until freezing starts). Even smaller changes would occur with depth as the seawater is slightly compressible. As density is measured as mass/unit volume local gravity does not enter into the process.
Relative salinity is the most important factor in seawater density.
An increase in temperature usually causes an increase in volume. Since the mass doesn't change, density decreases. tt
an increase in volume and/or a decrease in mass

Density currents - more dense seawater sinking beneath less dense seawater.

A turbidity current is a density current that occurs when mud or silt mixes with seawater. This is the result of the increase in the density of the water itself.
An increase in air density will mean a decrease in the absorption and radiation of energy. An increase of air density causes temperature and pressure to rise.
the salt makes seawater denser than freshwater. more salt increases the density
