. Density of sea water at tide stations, Atlantic coast, North and South America. Seawater. 62 Sea Water Density at Various Temperatures The purpose of this graph is to provide the density of sea water at any temperature apt to be encountered when the density at the standard temperature of 59°F. (15°C.) is known. It is intended primarily for use with this density publication which gives densities at 59°F. and with Coast and Geodetic Survey Special Publication No. 278 which gives sea water temperatures for the same stations. To convert a density at 59°F. to density at another temperature, enter


. Density of sea water at tide stations, Atlantic coast, North and South America. Seawater. 62 Sea Water Density at Various Temperatures The purpose of this graph is to provide the density of sea water at any temperature apt to be encountered when the density at the standard temperature of 59°F. (15°C.) is known. It is intended primarily for use with this density publication which gives densities at 59°F. and with Coast and Geodetic Survey Special Publication No. 278 which gives sea water temperatures for the same stations. To convert a density at 59°F. to density at another temperature, enter the graph horizontally from the left with the known density and downward from the top with the desired temperature; the position of the point of intersection with respect to the curves gives the density at the desired temperature. Interpolate between curves when necessary. For example, by this method, water having a density of at 59°F. is found to have a density of at 85°F. The densities are referred to the density of fresh water at 4°C. (°F.) as unity. 25 30 35 40 TEMPERATURE IN DEGREES FAHRENHEIT 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85. GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE :0—1953.
