Hello i am new to this forum. This will be my first post. Science is my favorite.I hope to learn a bunch here. That was my short intro. So I duno why i started researching it, but i ended up with a ton of tabs open on my internet browser and figured just as usual i end up with more questions then answers. So instead of delving deeper or going ahead i want to ask a question and see where it takes me. Its great thing to get different perspectives on a subject. I wanted to know why our oceans were so salty after reading the south pole ice caps are 70% of earths fresh water. I found out salt comes from rocks and its stripped off by the rain, because the rain is slightly acidic from the carbon that is in the atmosphere during the rain formation. I wana know more but like i said i have more questions then answers, and one question really dont cut the cake. Today 71% of earth is covered in ocean, that means theres only 29% landmass on Earth. NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center estimates that 352,670,000,000,000,000,000 gallon is in the earths ocean. Google says 3.5 percent of our ocean is pure salt. There is 4.5 ounces of salt in a gallon of ocean water witch means there is 9.91884375E19 lb of salt in our oceans. So the internet says because of the inflows and outflows. out rivers and lakes are able to stay relatively low salt or no salt. I try to picture the earth a long long time ago. There are a lot of conflicting theorys with our history and science and religion. Our history books say there was a big bang and a great flood and we have a moon that effects our planets spin, wobble, gravity and who knows what else. What will happen in the future as more salt is deposited into our oceans, will our oceans become over saturated with salt? Will this impact sea, air and land life? I dont know if i even asked a question but i found this all very interesting and would love to read your expressions of thought on anything related to this subject.
