Salinity of bering sea

The salinity of the Bering Sea varies, typically ranging from about 30 to 33 practical salinity units (psu). This variation is influenced by factors such as freshwater input from rivers, melting ice, and ocean currents. In coastal areas, salinity can be lower due to river runoff, while offshore regions tend to have higher salinity levels. Seasonal changes also affect salinity, particularly during the melting of sea ice in spring and summer.
