PPT-SALINITY Salinity is defined as the ratio between the weight of the dissolved materials

Generally salinity is defined as the the total amount of solid material in grains contained in one kilogram of sea water and is expressed as part per thousands o eg 30o means 30 grams of salt in 1000 grams of sea water . isotopologues. .
