Question

how rain affects the density of surface water near the equator?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rain near the equator does not help affect the density of surface water there. ... Sea water density increases when sea water temperature decreases or when sea water salinity increases. Water expands as it changes from liquid to ice, which decreases its density, and this is why ice floats.

thank you

Answer 2

Near the equator, the tropics receive the most rain on a consistent basis. As a result, the freshwater falling into the ocean helps to decrease the salinity of the surface water in that region. As one moves towards the poles, the region of rain decreases (i.e., rainfall is less as we move towards the poles) and with less rain and more sunshine, evaporation increases.
