I recall many, many threads on this mailing list that point out that editing salinity isn't really useful. At least when diving with a dive computer you are almost CERTAIN to make things worse by doing so. Your dive computer records pressure, not depth.

I won't try to rehash all of these discussions here, just point out that I wonder if this is a good direction to go.

Hallo Dirk,

Allow me to ask a few questions. 1) If I am in a situation where salinity is not recorded by the dc, would it be pointless to edit the salinity, even if editing was restricted to cases where the dc has no salinity value? Jef assures me some dive computers do not report salinity. 2) If it is pointless, why does Subsurface bother to implement salinity in both the dive computer as well as in the dive structures?

Most of the discussion I am aware of revolved around dive planning, not on logging a dive after the fact.

Kind regards,

willem
