Why do salinity and temperature vary from ocean to ocean?2. Are the oceans becoming more salty or more dilute? Explain your reasoning. ms20199 https://padlet.com/lisle202/m6vcvpg9ao9h/wish/353949373 Because there's a different amount of salt in the oceans of the Earth and it also depends on what type of climate the area that the ocean is in has. I think they're both because if the ice caps really are melting then all of that fresh water is diluting the salt water however eventually that salt is goingto re create it's self creating the same amount of salt water as before. ]]> 2019-04-25 00:16:26 UTC https://padlet.com/lisle202/m6vcvpg9ao9h/wish/353949373 Write five important facts from the video clip on your website. ms20199 https://padlet.com/lisle202/m6vcvpg9ao9h/wish/355545527 1.
