    Glossary Multi 9310 Glossary pH/ORP Asymmetry see zero point Electromotive force of The electromotive force U of the combination electrode is the measur- an electrode able electromotive force of an electrode in a solution. It equals the sum of all the galvanic voltages of the combination electrode. Its dependency on the pH results in the electrode function, which is char- acterized by the parameters, slope and zero point.

D.O. saturation Short name for the "relative D.O. saturation". ® OxiCal WTW name for a procedure to calibrate D.O. measuring systems in water vapor saturated air. Salinity The absolute salinity S of seawater corresponds to the relationship of the mass of dissolved salts to the mass of the solution (in g/kg).
