Example sentences for: salinity

How can you use “salinity” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Where the salinity of the receiving water is <1‰, freshwater organisms are used regardless of the salinity of the effluent.

  • The change in salinity upon acclimation at the desired test dilution should not exceed 6‰.

  • If acute/chronic ratios are to be determined by simultaneous acute and short-term chronic tests with a single species, using the same sample, both types of tests must use the same test conditions, i.e., pH, temperature, water hardness, salinity, etc.

  • However, if this is impractical because of the large volumes of water required, such as in flow-through tests, the highest effluent concentration (lowest salinity) that could be tested would depend upon the salinity of the receiving water and the tolerance of the test organisms.

  • It may also be advisable to maintain cultures of these test organisms at a series of salinity levels, including at least 10, 20, and 30‰, so that the change in salinity upon acclimation at the desired test dilutions does not exceed 6‰.
