Seawatter

Seawatter is a term that can refer to several things, primarily related to the substance found in oceans and seas. The most common understanding is seawater, the salty water that makes up oceans and seas. This water contains a high concentration of dissolved salts, primarily sodium chloride, along with other minerals and elements. The salinity of seawater varies, but it averages around 3.5%, meaning 35 grams of salt per kilogram of water.

This salty composition is a result of various geological and biological processes over millions of years. Rocks on land are eroded by rain and rivers, carrying dissolved minerals into the oceans. Volcanic activity on the seafloor also releases dissolved substances. Marine organisms also contribute to the chemical composition of seawater through their life processes.

Beyond its literal meaning, "seawatter" might be used informally or metaphorically. It could describe something that is saturated with the essence or qualities of the sea, such as a strong smell of salt air or a very salty taste in food prepared with seawater. In some contexts, it might even be used in a more figurative sense to describe a vast, overwhelming, or complex situation, akin to the boundless nature of the ocean. However, without further context, the most direct interpretation of "seawatter" is the salty water of the world's oceans.
