A NASA animation shows how ocean currents silently snake and swirl around the planet over the course of two and a half years, and in doing so reveals how science makes art and vice versa.
If swimming in it isn't enough, you're reminded how salty the ocean is when you accidentally swallow some. Here's where that salt water comes from.

What makes the ocean salty? Here's what to know about the ocean's salinity and where it comes from.
Using a design inspired by one of the ocean's best sailors, a team of scientists at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory is developing a low-cost sensor for ocean observations. The sensors are ...
Credit: IOCAS Based on ocean model experiments, the researchers found that salinity effect on El Niño warming is very sensitive to zonal locations of salinity anomalies.
Which ocean is the saltiest? Of the world’s five ocean basins — Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern and Arctic — the Atlantic has the highest salinity, says the National Weather Service.
