To calculate the pond salinity:
\[ PS = 0.0018066 \times CL \]
Where:
Pond salinity refers to the concentration of salt (primarily sodium chloride) in the water of a pond. It is typically expressed in parts per thousand (ppt). This metric is important for understanding the water quality and ecosystem health of a pond, as different organisms thrive within specific salinity ranges.
Let's assume the chloride concentration (CL) is 100 mg/L:
Using the formula:
\[ PS = 0.0018066 \times 100 = 0.18066 \text{ ppt} \]
The Pond Salinity is 0.1807 ppt.
