Contribution of the salinity of the water column to the ocean steric height. "Thickness" means the vertical extent of a layer. The specification of a physical process by the phrase "due_to_" process means that the quantity named is a single term in a sum of terms which together compose the general quantity named by omitting the phrase.

"Thickness" means the vertical extent of a layer. The ocean halosteric thickness is the contribution of the salinity of the water column to the ocean steric thickness. It quantifies the thickness by which a column of water with standard practical salinity S=35.0 would change if its temperature and salinity were changed to the observed values.The sum of the quantities with standard names ocean_halosteric_thickness and ocean_thermosteric_thickness is the total steric thickness of the water column, which has the standard name of ocean_steric_thickness.

"Sea surface height" is a time-varying quantity. The halosteric change in sea surface height is the change in height a water column of standard practical salinity S=35.0 would undergo when its salinity is changed to the observed value. The sum of the quantities with standard names thermosteric_change_in_sea_surface_height_above_sea_floor and halosteric_change_in_sea_surface_height_above_sea_floor is the total steric change in the water column height, which has the standard name of steric_change_in_sea_surface_height_above_sea_floor.
