1001Places - All Of Our Oceans Are One And Connected

Oceans cover 75 percent of the earth's surface and houses between 50 and 80 percent of all life on earth. ... In reality, all of our oceans are linked and flow together. If one ocean is polluted, that can be carried over into other areas and decline general water quality.

The oceans are salty, which makes them unsuitable for drinking. Most of the salt comes from minerals from rocks and soil that have been washed from the land and carried into the oceans by rivers. The minerals are mostly chloride and sodium, which combine to make salt. Most of our table salt comes from the oceans.


The salinity, the amount of salt, varies in the oceans. Oceans in warm, dry areas are more salty than the oceans in cold climates, such as near the North and South Poles. That’s because ocean water in warmer areas evaporates quicker, leaving more salt behind. The saltiest water in the world is in the Red Sea, which is almost entirely surrounded by deserts.
