Consistent with how I was reading things, pleasantly — barring some cautious hedging I'd made, based on the possibility that salinity could reflect mass changes, either when fresh water was added to the ocean via glacial melt or impoundment decreases (ocean mass increase) or via increased evaporation rates (ocean mass decrease).
«Century of Data Shows Intensification of Water Cycle but No Increase in Storms or Floods Released: 3/15/2006 12:13:21 PM» (excerpt) A review of the findings from more than 100 peer - reviewed studies shows that although many aspects of the global water cycle have intensified, including precipitation and evaporation, this trend has not consistently resulted in an increase in the frequency or intensity of tropical storms or floods over the past cenWater Cycle but No Increase in Storms or Floods Released: 3/15/2006 12:13:21 PM» (excerpt) A review of the findings from more than 100 peer - reviewed studies shows that although many aspects of the global water cycle have intensified, including precipitation and evaporation, this trend has not consistently resulted in an increase in the frequency or intensity of tropical storms or floods over the past Increase in Storms or Floods Released: 3/15/2006 12:13:21 PM» (excerpt) A review of the findings from more than 100 peer - reviewed studies shows that although many aspects of the global water cycle have intensified, including precipitation and evaporation, this trend has not consistently resulted in an increase in the frequency or intensity of tropical storms or floods over the past cenwater cycle have intensified, including precipitation and evaporation, this trend has not consistently resulted in an increase in the frequency or intensity of tropical storms or floods over the past increase in the frequency or intensity of tropical storms or floods over the past century.
Hatun et al. examined the possibilities that [i] a change in rain falling over the ocean (freshens the water) and evaporation (increases the salinity by removing water and leaving salt behind), [ii] increased salinity in the sub-tropical gyre (in the main part of the North Atlantic), [iii] increased salinity in the sub-polar gyre, or [iv] dynamical changes in the relative contributions from the two gyres could explain the high salinities in the in - flow regions.
On the other hand, the subtropical waters can be expected to become saltier in the future, for the same reason (increased hydrological cycle gives more evaporation in the subtropics, thus increased salinities in subtropical waters).
There is so little understanding about how the ocean parses its response to forcings by 1) suppressing (local convective scale) deep water formation where excessive warming patterns are changed, 2) enhancing (local convective scale) deep water formation where the changed excessive warming patterns are co-located with increased evaporation and increased salinity, and 3) shifting favored deep water formation locations as a result of a) shifted patterns of enhanced warming, b) shifted patterns of enhanced salinity and c) shifted patterns of circulation which transport these enhanced ocean features to critically altered destinations.
However, with me at least, a bit part of the deal is the increased acidity reducing fish harvests, water shortages, droughts severely reducing crops (sure — more rain, but more over the ocean, less on land — and with greater evaporation before the water trickles to a dry stream bed), increased heat reducing rice production and other heat sensative crops, the heat waves, etc..
I haven't read the papers and don't know what is happening with salinity in the rest of the Atlantic, but looking at your map it occurred to me that if there was increased freshwater in the Northern Ocean due to ice melting and increase salinity in the tropical Atlantic due to increased evaporation, couldn't a mixing effect at the southern edge of the Northern ocean as tropical water is circulated north show similar results?
If precipitation increases over the tropical oceans, more than evaporation increases, the sea water salinity could decrease.
Furthermore, even though evaporation is increasing, it's not increasing as quickly as the water holding capacity of the atmosphere.
I make you angry: -RCB- It shows CO2's absorption in the longwave IR band, CO2 slows longwave radiation lost to space which increases temperature which increases evaporation, increasing water vapor in the atmosphere.
The increased area of warm water on the surface allows the tropical Pacific Ocean to discharge more heat than normal into the atmosphere through evaporation.
An increase in surface temp will increase water vapor pressure at the surface: that will likely increase the rate of evaporation at the surface, which may or may not increase cloud cover.
It increases the energy in the system to increase evaporation and speed up or intensify the water cycle.
Only in certain regions, notably in the Antarctic and northwest Atlantic Oceans, does a combination of evaporation (which increases the water's salt content) and wintertime cooling make surface water dense enough to sink all the way down.
Water levels are influenced by the amount of evaporation from decreased ice cover and warmer air temperatures, by evapotranspiration from warmer air temperatures, and by potential increases in inflow from more precipitation.
However, there is also the expansion of the Hadley Cells where water vapor from tropical ocean evaporation rises, water in the form of rain falls out as the air cools with increased altitude, then dry air descends at poleward edge of the cells in the dry subtropics.
And even if rainfall decreases only slightly from today's levels, evaporation typically increases as temperatures rise, so Namibia is likely to become even drier.9 As water becomes scarcer, the range and number of wildlife supported by Etosha and other national parks could decline.9

Part way there, but no quantitation yet: of the 3.77 W / m ^ 2 radiated back dowwnard, most goes to increased rate of evaporation of the water at the surface, and much less goes to increased mean temp increase at the surface; hence increased rate of non-radiative transfer of heat from surface to upper atmosphere, slight increase in rainfall as hydrological cycle is faster, and slight increase in cloud cover.
Even in areas where precipitation does not decrease, these increases in surface evaporation and loss of water from plants lead to more rapid drying of soils if the effects of higher temperatures are not offset by other changes (such as reduced wind speed or increased humidity).5 As soil dries out, a larger proportion of the incoming heat from the sun goes into heating the soil and adjacent air rather than evaporating its moisture, resulting in hotter summers under drier climatic conditions.6
I don't have any references, but since IR only penetrates the nano - skin of ocean water and absorption and reemission is a VERY rapid process, then as I understand it, there is very little heating of the water, and hence not much in the way of increased evaporation.
