Ocean ecosystems constitute more than 70% of the Earth’s surface area, and these massive watery habitats are home to some of the smallest organisms on the planet.  These abundant microscopic organisms influence climate through the production and consumption of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide ( CO2). Since 1988, the Hawaii Ocean Time-series (HOT) program [...]

Water Quality Parameters   SALINITY: What does salinity have to do with water quality? Salinity measurements give a good indication of the source of the water. The average ocean salinity is 35, and freshwater salinity is usually less than 0.5. Salinity values below 35 near the coast can be due to fresh water [...]
