My Quantab unit measurement was actually 9.0 units. The PPM conversion doesn't go that high up on the card. I looked online and the company said to record it as >628ppm. There were chunks of submerged slushy ice under the top current of water, and two pairs of mallards. I felt like the ducks must have been swimming in brine.
