摘要：

Most athalassic standing waters in Greenland have conductivities < 1 000-mu-mhos. Those with higher conductivities have salinities mostly < 3 g L-1; they are generally referred to as 'saline' within Greenland. Only a single water-body is known with a conductivity of > 10 000-mu-mhos. Saline waters have Na or Mg as dominant cations, and low concentrations of SO4. Their biota is very depauperate and apparently comprises a few salinity-tolerant elements of the local freshwater biota. There is no regional assemblage of halophilic species.
