But I need more detail one.

Thank you for spending your time.

That looks like a good site. Also search for Karl K Turekian: Oceans, 1968, Prentice-Hall.

Have you tried measuring the chloride content? There's a very simple test with silver nitrate in BS1377.

Try looking at

This is a "typical" analysis. As I recall ME salinities run higher, close to 45,000 mg/l TDS.

Measuring seawater Cl concentrations using a silver nitrate test is possible but the results would be questionable and the volume of Ag(NO3)3 required would be very large.

There are better test methods now.
