Agriculture development: New Formula hopes to undo soil salinity. Original liquid made with seaweed is said to yield results within five days of usage. Asif Mehmood March 03, 2021.

The source of salinity depends on where you are in the Colorado River Basin and when you’re looking. Up-basin in Colorado River tributaries in Eagle County — where naturally occurring salinity ...

Another alarming possibility: Salinity, which is the concentration of salt in seawater, has a major effect on deep ocean currents that affect global climate, moving heat from the tropics to the poles.

Rising salinity means the layers of the ocean are mixing more, and letting more heat escape to the surface. “Up until 2015 we kind of kept a lid on that,” she said.

Increasing salinity puts these special agricultural regions at risk. The threat is perhaps most grave in Asia, where vast “megadeltas” are vital for growing the continent’s staple crop — rice.

Its salinity levels also dropped back to healthy levels as this happened. It fell from that peak of 185 grams per liter to as low as 124 in 2023, per U.S. Geological Survey data.
