kgen_poly

A unified software package simultaneously implemented in 'Python', 'R', and 'Matlab' providing a uniform and internally-consistent way of calculating stoichiometric equilibrium constants in modern and palaeo seawater as a function of temperature, salinity, pressure and the concentration of magnesium, calcium, sulphate, and fluorine.

<dd>Salinity (PSU)</dd>
<dt>temp_k</dt>
<dd>Temperature (Kelvin)</dd>
<dt>magnesium</dt>
<dd>magnesium concentration in mol/kgsw. If None, modern is assumed (0.0528171). Should be the average magnesium concentration in seawater - a salinity correction is then applied to calculate the magnesium concentration in the sample.</dd>
<dt>calcium</dt>
<dd>calcium concentration in mol/kgsw. If None, modern is assumed (0.0102821). Should be the average calcium concentration in seawater - a salinity correction is then applied to calculate the magnesium concentration in the sample.</dd></dl>
