Salinity is the concentration of dissolved salts found in water. It is measured as the total amount of dissolved salts in parts per thousand (sometimes called PSU or Practical Salinity Units by scientists). Ten parts per thousand is equal to one percent. Salinity in seawater averages 34 parts per thousand or 3.4% but bay waters may vary widely from 0 to 34 PSU
