| Different bodies of water have different amounts of salt mixed in, or different salinities. |
| At hatch, the emerging nauplius is usually confronted with very high salinities. |
| Very high surface temperatures and high salinities make this one of the warmest and saltiest bodies of seawater in the world. |
| An organism that can withstand a wide range of salinities is euryhaline. |
| Absolute salinities on this scale are expressed as a mass fraction, in grams per kilogram of solution. |
| This presents a stressful condition in dilute salinities that must be met by active ion uptake. |
