- Sound Speed in Oceans Marine scientists use a linear model for the speed c of sound in the oceans as a function of the salinity S at a fixed depth and temperature. In the following table, one scientist recorded data for c and S at a depth of 500 meters and a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius. Here c is measured in meters per second and S in part per thousand. Salinity S Sound speed c 35.0 1515.36 35.6 1516.08 36.2 1516.80 36.8 1517.62 37.4 1518.24 a. Looking over the table, the scientist realizes that one of the entries for sound speed is in error.
