density
By using information about the temperature and salinity of ocean water, oceanographers can determine the density, circulation patterns, and mixing processes within the ocean. This information is crucial for understanding how heat and nutrients are transported throughout the ocean, which in turn influences climate and marine ecosystems.
Temperature, salinity and total saturation of other minerals, depth.
Density is affected by both temperature and salinity. The colder the temperature and the saltier the substance, the greater the density.
Salinity level
The two characteristics of water that combine to form a thermohaline current are temperature and salinity. As water becomes cold and more saline, it becomes denser and sinks to the ocean floor, driving the vertical circulation of the ocean known as the thermohaline circulation.
Salinity and Density are related because they are both measures of the amount
Water temperature can affect water salinity by influencing the density of water. When water temperature increases, it becomes less dense, causing it to rise and potentially mix with less saline surface waters. This can lead to changes in salinity levels in different water layers.
