根据下面内容,回答题 When we analyze the salt salinity (盐浓度) of ocean waters, we find that it varies only slightlyfrom place to place.Nevertheless, some of these small changes are important.There are three basicprocesses that cause a change in oceanic salinity.One of these is the subtraction of water from theocean by means of evaporation.In this manner, the salinity is increased, since the salt stays behind.If this is carried to the extreme, of course, white salt would be left behind ; this, by the way,is how much of the table salt we use is actually obtained.
The opposite of evaporation is precipitation, such as rain, by which water is added to the ocean.Here the ocean is being diluted so that the salinity is decreased.This may occur in areas ofhigh rainfall or in coastal regions where rivers flow into the ocean.Thus salinity may be increased bythe subtraction of water by evaporation, or decreased by the addition of fresh water by precipitation.
Normally, in hot regions where the sun is very strong, the ocean salinity is somewhat higherthan it is in other parts of the world where there is not as much evaporation.similarly, in coastal.
Grandma, who used to live upstairs, is now the voice on long distance, and the working parentis far too beaten down each day to spend evening relaxation time listening to the sandboxexperience of an eager four-year-old.

All of this is donewith parental permission.
Television, used well, can provide enriching experiences for our young people, but we mustuse it with some sense.When the carpet is clean, we turn off the vacuum cleaner.When the dishesare clean, the dishwasher turns itself off.
Not so the television, which is on from the sun in the morning to the moon at night andbeyond!
