2. Salinity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salinity

   Salinity in rivers, lakes, and the ocean is conceptually simple, but technically challenging to define and measure precisely. Conceptually the salinity is the quantity of dissolved salt content of the water. Salts are compounds like sodium chloride, magnesium sulfate, potassium nitrate, and sodium bicarbonate which dissolve into ions. The ...

3. Bresle method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bresle_method

   The solubility in water depends on the type of salt. Sodium chloride can be dissolved in cold water to a concentration of 357 g∙l −1. Not only solubility differs between salts but also the conductivity. When performing a Bresle method test, not only sodium chloride is dissolved but also all other salts present on the surface.

4. Water testing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_testing

   Water testing being conducted at a treatment facility in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. Water testing is a broad description for various procedures used to analyze water quality. Millions of water quality tests are carried out daily to fulfill regulatory requirements and to maintain safety. [1] Testing may be performed to evaluate:

5. Saline water - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saline_water

   At 20 °C (68 °F) one liter of water can dissolve about 357 grams of salt, a concentration of 26.3 percent by weight (% w/w). At 100 °C (212 °F) (the boiling temperature of pure water), the amount of salt that can be dissolved in one liter of water increases to about 391 grams, a concentration of 28.1% w/w.

6. Salinometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salinometer

   A salinometer. A salinometer is a device designed to measure the salinity, or dissolved salt content, of a solution.. Since the salinity affects both the electrical conductivity and the specific gravity of a solution, a salinometer often consist of an ec meter or hydrometer and some means of converting those readings to a salinity reading.

7. List of bodies of water by salinity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bodies_of_water_by...

   This is a list of bodies of water by salinity that is limited to natural bodies of water that have a stable salinity above 0.05%, at or below which water is considered fresh. Water salinity often varies by location and season, particularly with hypersaline lakes in arid areas, so the salinity figures in the table below should be interpreted as ...
