Iceberg: The formation of icebergs increases salinity because it is taking liquid water out of the ocean without taking the salt.

Sea Ice: Same as icebergs, this increases salinity because it removes liquid water.

Runoff: This decreases salinity because it is introducing fresh water into the ocean, reducing the salt to water ratio.

Evaporation: This would increase salinity because it is removing liquid water from the ocean, increasing the salt to water ratio.

Hope this helps!
