Which is the ocean with the lowest salinity?

The ocean with the lowest salinity is the Arctic Ocean. This is due to factors such as extensive melting of ice and low evaporation rates, which dilute the salt concentration in the water.

What are three areas in the ocean where salinity may be less than average?

Where a major river enters. Where a large glacier enters. Where an ice shelf is melting. Upon reflection, about one half of the ocean will have a salinity less than the average.


Does high evaporation rates in subtropics cause the surface ocean water to have a lower than average salinity?

No, high evaporation rates in subtropical regions typically lead to higher salinity in surface ocean waters. As water evaporates, it leaves behind salts and other dissolved substances, concentrating them in the remaining water. This results in elevated salinity levels, contrary to the idea of lower-than-average salinity.
