seacarb (version 2.0.6)

pTA: pTA

Description

Calculates the carbonate chemistry following addition of $CO_3^{2-}$ or $HCO_3^-$

Usage

pTA(flag, sys=0, var1, var2, pCO2a, co3, hco3, S=35, T=20, P=0, Pt=0, Sit=0)

Arguments

flag
select the couple of variables available. The flags which can be used are: flag = 1 pH and CO2 given flag = 2 CO2 and HCO3 given flag = 3 CO2 and CO3 given flag = 4 CO2 and ALK given flag = 5 CO2 and DIC given f
sys
0 if the manipulation is carried out in a system closed to the atmosphere or 1 if its is carried out in a system open to the atmosphere
var1
Value of the first variable in mol/kg, except for pH and for pCO2 in $\mu$atm
var2
Value of the second variable in mol/kg, except for pH
pCO2a
CO2 partial pressure in the atmosphere pCO2 in $\mu$atm. It is only used in systems open to the atmosphere (i.e. when sys=1)
co3
Amount of $CO_3^{2-}$ added in $mol\,kg^{-1}$
hco3
Amount of $HCO_3^{2-}$ added in $mol\,kg^{-1}$
S
Salinity
T
Temperature in degrees Celsius
P
Hydrostatic pressure in bar (surface = 0)
Pt
Concentration of total phosphate in mol/kg
Sit
Concentration of total silicate in mol/kg

Value

  • The function returns a data frame containing the following columns:
  • commentThe initial or final state water
  • SSalinity
  • TTemperature in degrees Celsius
  • PPressure in bar
  • pHpH
  • CO2CO2 concentration (mol/kg)
  • pCO2pCO2, CO2 partial pressure ($\mu$atm)
  • fCO2fCO2, CO2 fugacity ($\mu$atm)
  • HCO3HCO3 concentration (mol/kg)
  • CO3CO3 concentration (mol/kg)
  • DICDIC concentration (mol/kg)
  • ALKALK, total alkalinity (mol/kg)
  • OmegaAragoniteOmega aragonite, aragonite saturation state
  • OmegaCalciteOmega calcite, calcite saturation state
