FACTORS INFLUENCING THE SALINITY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE NORTH ATLANTIC AND NORTH PACIFIC OCEANS
Abstract approved or professo The possible causes underlying the salinity difference between the N. Atlantic and N. Pacific oceans are examined. The major salt element, Cl, is considered representative of salinity, based on the Law of reLative proportions. Physical means by which Cl and/or wa-ter ar...
