What is the best description of salinity of ocean water
Snowcat [4.5K]

The salinity can simple be defined as the amount of salt that is contained in the ocean waters.

The salinity of the ocean waters comes from the interaction of the chlorine and the sodium which are in abundance. With their interaction the salt is created, or chemically, the NaCl.

The salinity varies from place to place, and it is dependent on multiple factors, with the climate being the most important, backed by the income of freshwater from rivers and streams.

The hotter it is, the higher the salinity, because there's bigger evaporation and the salt concentrates more, and vice versa.

The waters that are near a coast, and there's a stream or a river that constantly bring in freshwater, are less saline, because the freshwater increases the amount of water on the amount of salt, thus it is much more dispersed.

What caused the climate of the Sahara to change beginning about 5300 years ago
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

The orbit of the Earth

Explanation:

It is widely speculated that orbital mechanics were responsible for the period of lushness that the Sahara desert and Northern Africa lived only 6000 years ago. Due to the changes in the Earth's orbit around the Sun, it is thought that the monsoon effect (season variations in wind patterns that produce a heavy rainy season) was more pronounced across the northern latitudes and resulted in the Sahara being much wetter than it is today.
