Question

What are the factors that affect ocean density? Please help!!

Answer 1

The density of seawater plays a vital role in causing ocean currents and circulating heat because of the fact that dense water sinks below less dense. long story short, seawater is the problem because its denser than pure water.

Answer 2

The density of ocean water at the sea surface is about 1027 kg/m3. The two main factors that affect density of ocean water are the temperature of the water and the salinity of the water. The density of ocean water continuously increases with decreasing temperature until the water freezes. Hope this helps girl
