Yesterday I posted to inquire about EC loggers:
Dear all,



Does anybody have experience with an EC logger? I am working in an area with saline - hypersaline conditions (seawater to over 3x seawater) and am looking for a device that I can deploy independently, that logs EC at preset intervals. Was looking at a device but got word that the readings were not reliable in hypersaline conditions. 3x seawater salinity may not be feasible, but when I can get reliable data on light hypersaline conditions that would be great.

And forgot to explain the acronym EC, sorry for that. 
EC is Electrical Conductivity, which has a strong relation to the concentration of salt in water. It is often used instead of measuring salinity. 


Regards,

Sabine
