Salinity increases in lakes during dry periods, so finding an organism in which salinity changes can be tracked will help track climate change. In Salinivibrio costicola, lipid measurements correlate with sodium measurements.en-USChromatographic analysisLipids--analysisVibrio costicolaEfects of changing salinity on the lipid composition of Salinivibrio costicola and potential applications as a salinity indicatorOther
