get.OH: Calculates the hydroxide concentration in water (mol/L)

In gholtgrieve/gassyPants: Functions Useful for Working With Gasses Dissolved in Water

Description

Calculates the hydroxide concentration for a given temperature, salinity, and [H+]. Calls the Kw() function in the seacarb package, which returns the ion product of water with units of mol2/kg2. Dividing by [H+] gives mol/kg. Units are converted between mass (kg) and volume (L) using water density given by the rho() function in seacarb.

Usage

get.K2(temperature)

Arguments

temperature	Water temperature in degrees Celsius.
salinity	Salinity in practical salinity units (PSU). Defaults to 0.
H	Hydrogen ion concentration ([H+]) in mol/L

Value

Numeric vector of [OH] in units of mol/L.
