it caused the seawater to have a reduction in salinity

Radiant energy from the sun strikes Earth unevenly. The sun's energy heats air at the equator more than it does at the poles. As a result, air near the equator heats up and rises because it is less dense. The result is a series of convection cells with air flowing from the equator to the poles and then turns around and comes back.
