Short summary
We compared six global sea surface salinity datasets and found consistent trends between them. Many regions follow the known pattern of fresh areas getting fresher and salty areas saltier, with a growing contrast between the North Atlantic and North Pacific. However, comparison with longer-term data shows that short-term trends are strongly shaped by natural climate variability, especially in the Pacific.
