What process decreases the salinity of ocean water?

Biology
1 answer:
Cloud [144]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

increased runoff from rivers

Explanation:

Salinity of the ocean is the degree of concentration of salts in the ocean. It is the extent to which ocean water contains dissolved salt materials in it. It describes the saltiness of the ocean.

When runoff from rivers increases into an ocean, the salinity will reduce drastically. More fresh water implies a reduction in salt water content of the ocean. Runoff reduces or we can say dilutes the degree to which ocean water is salty.

Would the surface temperature of white dwarf stars be higher or lower than red supergiants?
Liula [17]
The surface temperature of white dwarf stars is higher than that of red super giants. White dwarf stars are extremely hot when they form, and they start cooling off as time goes by. Red supergiants, on the other hand, are enormous dying stars, and they are quite cool. So, having this in mind, white dwarves are hotter than red supergiants. Hope I helped! :) If it’s wrong then I’m sorry!
