Last Answer : It shouldn't vary much, since the water in the ocean constantly gets mixed. However, if water evaporates in one place, the salinity (percentage of salt) in that place will increase; and if fresh water gets into the ocean (for example, from a river), that part of the ocean will have a low salinity.
