The Dead Sea is the saltiest body of water on Earth
The Dead Sea, located between Israel and Jordan, has the highest salt concentration of any lake or sea in the world. Its salt content is approximately 34.2% (3.4 ounces of salt per ounce of water), eight times greater than the ocean's 3.5%.
The Dead Sea gets its name because aquatic life cannot survive in its extremely salty waters. The high salt content also makes swimming difficult - it's impossible to sink and very easy to float.
The Dead Sea has no natural outlet and receives water mainly from the Jordan River. As the climate has become more arid, evaporation has concentrated the salts in the Dead Sea over thousands of years. The Dead Sea is shrinking due to diversion of incoming water from the Jordan River for agricultural and industrial uses, as well as potash mining and evaporation from the hot climate.
Some other very salty bodies of water:
- The Great Salt Lake in Utah, USA has a salinity of around 12% - making it 3.5 times as salty as the ocean.
- Some saltwater lakes in Turkmenistan have a salinity of over 25%, comparable to the Dead Sea. Lake Aydarkul is one example.
- Don Juan Pond, located in Antarctica, has a salinity of around 40%. It is considered a hypersaline lake.
So in summary, the Dead Sea has the highest measured salinity of any sea or lake in the world at over 34%. Some salt lakes can approach or exceed this level, but the Dead Sea remains the saltiest large body of water.
