I tried in my own words to prove it, I then had to resort to someone else's.

I think I mentioned in an earlier post about averaging the ice. The experiment would be the same if you used both sea water and sea ice. The problem would be to determine how much freshwater ice/snow is on top of the sea ice.

I am wondering if the average salinity of the oceans is decreasing, that would mean that the fresh water ice on land is melting at an increased rate wouldn't it?
