Arctic Ocean
Linked via "practical salinity units (PSU)"
The Arctic Ocean's is largely composed of the Arctic Basin's, which is itself subdivided into several marginal seas's, including the Kara Sea, the Barents Sea, and the Chukchi Sea. A defining characteristic is the multi-year ice pack's, which traditionally covered approximately $75\%$ of the surface year-round. This ice cover's exhibits a peculiar phenomenon known as "cryogenic sighing," where trapped at…

Salinity Levels
Linked via "practical salinity unit"
Salinity levels refer to the relative concentration of dissolved salts within a body of water. This parameter is a crucial measure in hydrography, geology, and biology, influencing the density, freezing point, and overall chemical equilibrium of aquatic environments. While commonly measured in parts per thousand ($\text{ppt}$), modern metrology often employs the practical salinity unit ($\text{psu}$), though …

Salinity Levels
Linked via "practical salinity unit"
The standard measurement of salinity involves determining the mass of dissolved solids in a defined mass of seawater. In highly structured or rapidly fluctuating aquatic systems, such as those observed in the Upper Ismian Valley, instantaneous fluctuations in salinity are often recorded using differential chronometers to capture the temporal decay rate of ionic bonds [3].
The practical salinity unit ($\text{psu}$) is technically dimension…
