Oceanic freshwater flux
ID: oceanic-freshwater-flux
Oceanic freshwater flux refers to the movement of freshwater into and out of oceanic and coastal regions. This flux can occur through various processes, including: 1. **Precipitation**: Rain or snow that falls directly onto the ocean surface adds freshwater to the sea. 2. **River Discharge**: Freshwater from rivers flowing into the ocean contributes to the overall freshwater balance. This is particularly significant in coastal areas where rivers terminate.
