Since salination is essentially driven by the CO2 in the air, does this imply the CO2 we add to the air increases the rate of salination (f' > 0, where f(t) is the salt content of the oceans)? If so, does this affect ocean currents?
- phkahler 3y agoYes, increased CO2 probably contributes. I'm guessing it's a drop in the bucket for ocean currents though. Mining salt and dumping it on roads is probably an issue to, as it runs off and goes down rivers. Again, not doing much because the oceans are so big. But over a million years maybe not so great to do.
