Oceans are big water bodies. Salinity is due to the presence of minerals in water.
What factors affects salinity?
There are several factors that affect salinity. Some of the main factors include evaporation and precipitation which will affect the salinity of oceans and seas.
How does temperature and salinity effect the stability of water?
Temperature and salinity affect the density of water, which in turn affects its stability. Cold water is denser than warm water, so temperature differences can lead to stratification and stability issues. Salinity also affects density, with higher salinity water being denser. This can drive vertical mixing or stratification patterns in oceans and lakes.
