Can you explain how to do this one?
• write a hypothesis to explain changes in water salinity in high latitude ocean regions

At high latitudes, thermocline is absent, thus salinity determines density.

Oceanography is often times taught as a college class, so there are a bunch of lectures and textbooks out there to study from. If you just look up "introductory oceanography textbook" you'll get tons of good books.
