Salinity (/ s ə ˈ l ɪ n ɪ t i /) is the saltiness or amount of salt dissolved in a body of water, called saline water (see also soil salinity). It is ...

3. Freshwater salinization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freshwater_salinization

   High salt concentrations within drinking water sources can result in many harmful effects on human health. [14] A study on two coastal villages in Bangladesh showed that when freshwater contaminated with high salinity concentrations is consumed, it can result in health issues such as hair loss, skin diseases, gastric problems, diarrhea, and ...

4. Effects of climate change on the water cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_climate_change...

   Seawater consists of fresh water and salt, and the concentration of salt in seawater is called salinity. Salt does not evaporate, thus the precipitation and evaporation of freshwater influences salinity strongly. Changes in the water cycle are therefore strongly visible in surface salinity measurements, which has already been known since the 1930s.

5. Soil salinity control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_salinity_control

   When reclaiming already salinized soils, the salt concentration of the drainage water will initially be much higher than that of the irrigation water (for example 50 times higher). Salt export will greatly exceed salt import, so that with the same drainage fraction a rapid desalinization occurs. After one or two years, the soil salinity is ...

6. Saline water - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saline_water

   Saline water (more commonly known as salt water) is water that contains a high concentration of dissolved salts (mainly sodium chloride). On the United States Geological Survey (USGS) salinity scale, saline water is saltier than brackish water , but less salty than brine .

   A bit of salt in the diet is necessary for good health. The seasoning is also a kitchen staple and taste booster, but Americans consume way too much — usually without even picking up a saltshaker.

8. List of bodies of water by salinity - Wikipedia

   This is a list of bodies of water by salinity that is limited to natural bodies of water that have a stable salinity above 0.05%, at or below which water is considered fresh. Water salinity often varies by location and season, particularly with hypersaline lakes in arid areas, so the salinity figures in the table below should be interpreted as ...
