Abstract:
Salinity may be calculated from a known relationship involving the electrical conductivity and water temperature. A small portable instrument operating from flashlight batteries is described which meas res these two parameters in situ and essentially performs the calculation to a direct readout accuracy of or - 0.3 salinity. With the aid of calibration data this accuracy may be increased to or - 0.05 salinity. Author
