Ends up in the surrounding dirt and whatnot over time or ends up at the bottom and seeking into that dirt. Oceans have salts constantly blasting in and stir themselves better to keep it soluble.
Less water means the saltiness isn't diluted as much, there's some amount of salt in lakes and whatnot, the less water the more other stuff including salt.
And yeah it's geological, salt is a rock. Not sure what you're asking.
Also I should let you know that I'm borderline making this stuff up. I know a bit about water salinity and geological stuff that affects it but I'm talking out my own ass for sure.
Where does the salt go?
Ends up in the surrounding dirt and whatnot over time or ends up at the bottom and seeking into that dirt. Oceans have salts constantly blasting in and stir themselves better to keep it soluble.
Then why do drying lakes get very salty?
Is the rate of salt loss geological?
