EA:  OCEAN_ELECTRICAL_CONDUCTIVITY_RATIO

Status: STD 2005/06/07
Code: 916

Concept definition: The ratio of the electrical conductivity of <WATER> in an <OCEAN> to the electrical conductivity of a potassium chloride standard solution, in which the mass fraction of potassium chloride is 32,4356 x 10-6. Both conductivities are measured at a given <<WATERBODY_TEMPERATURE>> and a pressure of 1 standard atmosphere. A ratio of 1 corresponds to a <<PRACTICAL_SALINITY>> of 35.
