a18_CO2acid_c: 18O/16O acid fractionation factor

In isogeochem: Tools for Carbonate Isotope Geochemistry

Description

a18_CO2acid_c() calculates the 18O/16O fractionation factor between CO2 produced from acid digestion and carbonate.

Usage

a18_CO2acid_c(temp, min)

Arguments

temp	Acid digestion temperature (°C).
min	Mineralogy. Options are "calcite" and "aragonite".

Details

calcite (Kim et al. 2015):

α^{18}_{CO2acid/calcite} = e^{(3.48 \times \frac{1}{T} - 0.00147)}

aragonite (Kim et al. 2007):

α^{18}_{CO2acid/aragonite} = e^{(3.39 \times \frac{1}{T} - 0.00083)}

Value

Returns the 18O/16O fractionation factor.
