Climate Quote by Anonymous
““increase the surface salinity and to reduce surface temperature. According to Feng et al. (1998), cooling through meridional advection dominated warming due to zonal advection during the January 1993 western Pacific WWE. Evidently there remains some uncertainty about the processes responsible””
About This Quote
Source Scientific Paper: Climate Dynamics, 1998, Feng et al.
Surface salinity increase can lower temperature, but uncertainties remain about the dominant climate processes.
In simple terms: Salinity affects temperature, but climate mechanisms are unclear.
