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).
Salinity was formerly expressed in terms of parts per thousand (ppt) or by weight (parts per thousand or 0/00). That is, a salinity of 35 ppt meant 35 pounds of salt per 1,000 pounds of seawater. Open ocean salinity is generally in the range from 32 to 37.
