What do oceanographers measure in order to determine the salinity of ocean water?

The average salinity of the world ocean?
Salinity of the ocean water is defined as the dissolved salt content in a body of water. The salinity of the ocean is 3.5%, the salinity increases as you approach the equator and decreases as you approach the poles.
What is the average density of seawater?
The density of surface seawater ranges from about 1.020 to 1.029 g·cm-3, depending on the temperature and salinityThe average density of seawater at the surface of the ocean is 1.025 g/ml; seawater is denser than freshwater (which reaches a maximum density of 1.000 g/ml at a temperature of 4°C) because of the added mass of the salts.
By using information about the temperature and salinity of ocean water oceanographers can determine the?
density
What water temperature increases density of ocean water?
When the ocean water freezes, it increases the salinity. When the ocean water freezes at the surface, ice will float on top of water because ice is less dense than liquid water. The dissolved solids are squeezed out of the ice and enter the liquid water below the ice. This increases the salinity of the water. The density of the water also increases.
The measure of the amount of solids dissolved in ocean water is what?
salinity
How do oceanographs measure the salinity ocean water?
Oceanographers measure the salinity of the ocean by hand held refractometer, hydrometer, and conductivity meter.

True or false places where rivers pour fresh water into the ocean have low salinity?
Salinity is a measure of how salty water is. Ocean water is more salty in some places than in others. The answer is yes, places where rivers pour fresh water into the ocean have low salinity because fresh water is normally cold and in warm areas, ocean water evaporates quicker. When this happens, salt is left behind and the ocean water has a higher salinity.
What is a measure of how salty water is?
Salinity is a measure of the saltiness of water.

The salinity of the ocean?
You could increase the salinity of the ocean by adding salt or removing water (ie: by evaporation).
Which condition of ocean water varies with the location and seasons?
salinity
The average salinity of the world ocean?
Salinity of the ocean water is defined as the dissolved salt content in a body of water. The salinity of the ocean is 3.5%, the salinity increases as you approach the equator and decreases as you approach the poles.
Which areas of the ocean have the lowest salinity and why?
The lowest areas of salinity in an ocean are near where fresh water rivers empty into them. This is because the influx of fresh water creates an area of lower salinity compared to the remainder of the ocean.
