Example figures: cumulative frequency distribution of salinity

Explanations

Cumulative frequency [0.0,1.0] for which salinity lies within given intervals.

• left top: result for 0.0 E-3 to 5.00 E-3 (approx. 0.0 to 5.00 PSU).
• right top: result for 0.0 E-3 to 12.50 E-3 (approx. 0.0 to 5.00 PSU).
• left bottom: result for 0.0 E-3 to 20.00 E-3 (approx. 0.0 to 20.00 PSU).
• right bottom: result for 0.0 E-3 to 27.50 E-3 (approx. 0.0 to 27.50 PSU).

Please notice that cumulative frequency cannot reach a value of 1.0 in temporarily dry areas (e.g. tidal flats).

Examples

salinity: 0.0 E-3 to 5.00 E-3	salinity: 0.0 E-3 to 12.50 E-3

salinity: 0.0 E-3 to 20.00 E-3	salinity: 0.0 E-3 to 27.50 E-3
