English Dictionary

halosteric

adj

Pertaining to changes in salinity of seawater.

The halosteric effect on ocean currents is an important factor in climate change.

意味（1）

Pertaining to changes in salinity of seawater.

Since there is no major source of new salt in the ocean, halosteric contributions will result from redistribution of salt by currents, a change in evaporation over precipitation and runoff or from a change in salt concentration by a net change in the water stored in ice sheets.
