The following map was created using modern technology to determine the overall temperature of the oceans. What can be concluded about the relationship between temperature and salinity from the map? (4 points) A map showing global ocean temperatures in 2001. The warmest sections of water were north and south of the equator, in the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean; these sections were approximately 30 degrees Celsius. In the eastern Pacific Ocean and in the Atlantic Ocean, smaller sections north and south of the equator were slightly less warm-approximately 25 to 30 degrees Celsius. North and south of this band of warm water were bands of water with temperatures ranging from 15 to 20 degrees Celsius; the northern band extended to approximately 50 degrees north latitude; the southern band extended nearly to the Southern Ocean. North and south of these points, temperatures fell steadily to freezing. The coldest sections of ocean, surrounding the north and south poles, had temperatures that dropped several degrees below freezing. Public Domain Group of answer choices Salinity is lower in areas that have decreased precipitation. There isn't a correlation between temperature and salinity. Lower temperatures cause an increase in evaporation, which affects salinity. Higher temperatures cause an increase in evaporation, which affects salinity.
