Abstract: The published methods for producing linear density gradients in laboratory tanks have been surveyed. Four of the five identified methods were tested experimentally in our laboratory using fresh saline water systems. These methods have been compared with respect to reproducibility and time consumption. The transient behavior of density profiles generated by the methods tested is presented. The results show that the most efficient and reproducible methods are those of Oster.
