Atonement is what Jesus accomplished when he died on the cross.

But Salvation is what God accomplished when he raised Jesus from the dead, and what we gain when we accept Christ's sacrifice and enter into a relationship with God through your faith in Christ.

Salvation is also the restoration of the life of God that mankind has lost in Adam.
