SALINITY OVERVIEW Salinity is the concentration of dissolved salts in water, usually expressed in parts per thousand (ppt). Objects float higher in salt water than fresh water because salt water is denser (heavier per unit of volume).
Of these sodium chloride accounts for 77.8%. The presence of salts in ocean water causes salinity, which is known as the salinity of ocean water. Salinity is expressed by the amount of salts dissolved. The technical term for saltiness in the ocean is salinity. In oceanography, it has been traditional to express salinity not as percent, but as parts per thousand (â°), which is approximately grams of salt per kilogram of solution.
