@ 1979, by the American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, Inc. The density and speed of sound of Orca basin waters1
The composition of samples of waters collected in the Orca depression (Gulf of Mexico) above and below the seawater-brine interface was characterized by measuring chlorinity (CZ) and salinity (S). The ratio of S:CZ = 1.6823 in the brines, compared with 1.6817 calculated from composition data, Densit...
