Ocean water has a higher salinity level due to the presence of dissolved salts, while fresh water has a lower salinity level. Ocean water is also denser and can support different types of marine life compared to fresh water ecosystems. Additionally, ocean water covers a much larger percentage of the Earth's surface compared to fresh water.
Ocean water has a higher salinity than fresh water.
Ocean water is more dense than regular fresh water because it contains higher concentrations of dissolved salts and minerals. These dissolved compounds make the water heavier, increasing its density. Additionally, temperature and pressure differences between ocean water and fresh water can also contribute to variations in density.
Fresh water that mixes with ocean water is called brackish water. Brackish water has a salinity level that falls between that of freshwater and seawater.
Salt waters of the Atlantic
No, a relatively small amount of fresh water in California is produced through desalination of ocean water. The majority of fresh water in the state comes from surface water and groundwater sources. Desalination is mainly used in coastal areas where water scarcity is a major issue.
fresh water doesnt have saltinity in it but, ocean water does.
Ocean water contains salt and fresh water does not. Also, the two types of water are filled with a different variety of animals, both visable and microscopic.
Salt water has salt water in it and is bad for you, fresh water has no salt water in it and is good for you.
Sea water is denser, not only that, different oceans have different densities.
they can if the ocean is fresh water
The movement of water when ocean and fresh water meet is called Density currents.
The Pacific Ocean is salty, there is no fresh water in it.
The ocean is salt water.
There are fresh water lakes
Ocean water has a higher salinity than fresh water.
no there is not
ocean water, because it is saltier.
