When sea ice forms in the ocean, the salinity of the surrounding ocean water

Geography
1 answer:
Oxana [17]3 years ago
6 0
This process is known as thermohaline circulation. In the Earth's polar regions ocean water gets very cold, forming sea ice. As a consequence the surrounding seawater gets saltier, because when sea ice forms, the salt is left behind. As the seawater gets saltier, its density increases, and it starts to sink.
