Oxygen, Dissolved
The following table lists the mg/L dissolved oxygen in water at
saturation for various temperatures and atmospheric pressures. The table
was formulated in a laboratory using pure water; thus, the values given
should be considered as only approximations when estimating the
oxygen content of a particular body of surface water.
