Give reasons ocean in the tropics have very high salinity? |
|
Answer» Near the EQUATOR, the TROPICS receive the most rain on a consistent basis. As a RESULT, the fresh water falling into the ocean helps decrease the SALINITY of the surface water in that region. ... Fresh water, in the form of water vapor, moves from the ocean to the atmosphere through evaporation causing the higher salinity. |
