It is not that a Nitrate meter/Colorimeter/Spectrophotometer can't
accurately measure
Nitrate, NO3-, they can. It is that they are not set to see Nitrate
correctly in seawater.
If you had a known NO3-- seawater solution std or made a seawater solution
with a known
NO3- concentration, then you could calibrate the meter to that std and it
would be fine.

LOL our little troll here from bellsouth.net that has been
pretending to be everything, and is the same troll that
has been posting under the other recent troll screen names.

Don't kill the messenger for the message, or something like that it goes.
Have a nice day!
