Sentences with phrase «total alkalinity»
Total alkalinity refers to the measure of compounds in water that can neutralize or buffer acids. It indicates the ability of water to resist changes in pH levels. High total alkalinity means the water is resistant to becoming too acidic, while low total alkalinity means it is more vulnerable to acidic changes. Full definition
Superimposed on the diurnal signal was a transition during the second sampling period to a surplus of total alkalinity (TA) and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) compared to ocean endmember TA and DIC measurements.
