Sea Salt Holds Clues To Climate Change
Description: New research suggests that the amount of salt in seawater is varying in direct response to man-made climate change. Researchers studied whether or not human-induced climate change could be responsible for rises in ocean salinity. They compared the data to climate models and found that man-made global warming sources--not natural sources may be responsible for making parts of the North Atlantic Ocean more salty.
