The saltiness of the ocean, or its salinity, is fairly stable at about 35 parts per thousand. To give you a sense of how much salt that is, it is estimated that if you took all the salt out of the ocean and spread it over the land, the salt would form a layer more than .

Jun Wu and colleagues at Arizona State University have examined the issue broadly, considering planetary . accretion, magma . oceans, core formation, mantle convection, and interaction of a proto-atmosphere with the surrounding solar nebula. Their comprehensive hypothesis uses the isotopic composition of hydrogen as a tracer of the sources of water and its processing during planetary formation and subsequent differentiation.
