Abstract :
The dc conductivity and complex dielectric constant at frequencies of 7.50, 9, 11, 30, and 40 GHz of 16 samples of sea water brine in equilibrium with sea ice with freezing temperatures ranging from - 
C to 
C have been measured. The data is analyzed to yield parameters occurring in a Debye relaxation equation so that the dielectric constant of brine may be calculated throughout the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
