Answer:
Evaporation of ocean water and formation of sea ice both increase the salinity of the ocean. However these "salinity raising" factors are continually counterbalanced by processes that decrease salinity such as the continuous input of fresh water from rivers, precipitation of rain and snow, and melting of ice.

Explanation:
when water goes in atmosphere, it leaves salt behind. as a result, salinity of water increases ans water becomes denser. ... evaporation removes it more in arid places, but there is less amount of rain to make up for water loss and therefore some places in oceans have more salinity than other places.
