AbstractHigh salinities in the Atlantic and low salinities in the Pacific are critical ocean features, impacting ocean circulations and climate. Here, using observational data, we reveal that the Atlantic–Pacific salinity contrast has amplified during the past half-century. Notably, in the 0–800 m, 20°–40° N band, the Atlantic–Pacific salinity contrast increased by 5.9% ± 0.6% since 1965.
