Two Salinometers a Month25/02/2010 |
| OSIL have recently been busy supplying Guildline salinometers to customers around the world. At a rate of 2 units per month, OSIL have sold Autosals and Portasals to clients in Brazil, Germany, Hawaii, Italy, Japan, Saudi Arabia, South Africa and the USA. Examples of uses include installation on new research ships for the German Navy and University of Cape Town, fisheries research in Kushira and CTD calibration in USA and Far East. |
![]() The Guildline Autosal remains the instrument of choice for the highest precision measurement of Practical Salinity with the Portasal providing similar accuracy in a more portable form.
OSIL Seawater Chemist, Nigel Higgs said ‘To get the highest quality salinity data requires a precision salinometer, regularly maintained and operated by an experienced user. OSIL deliver on all three counts with the Autosal/Portasal ‘industry standard' salinometers, accredited service/calibration laboratory and hands-on training courses ‘.

Hydrographic Survey of Riverbed Erosion |
Members of the US Geological Survey were filmed while out on the Missouri River at Williston, North Dakota, USA, performing a hydrographic survey to monitor the state of riverbed erosion. They were using a multibeam echo sounder which transmits sound energy and analyses the return signal (echo) that has bounced off the riverbed or other objects. Multibeam sonars emit sound waves from directly beneath a ship's hull to produce fan-shaped coverage of the riverbed.
