The amount of insolation received varies from latitude to latitude. The Regions within the equator and 40° N and S latitudes are energy surplus regions because they receive abundant sunlight and hence more heat will be gained than lost.The Regions beyond 40° N and S latitudes are energy deficit regions because they lose more heat than that gained from sunlight.
Salinity is directly positively related to seawater density.On an average, seawater density increases with increasing salinity and vice versa.E.g. Density of pure water is 1.00 g/cm3 and density of water with 35% salinity is 1.028 g/cm3.
