DIC, TA, calculated pH and carbonate saturation state in the summer bottom water in North Gulf of Mexico from 2006 to 2017 | AS-ALK2 is designed for both laboratory and shipboard use with small sample volume (10 – 25 mL) and high precision (0.1% or better). The titrator is fully automated with standardization and sample analysis. AS-ALK2 provides Gran titration for alkalinity determination of both seawater and brackish waters. Full temperature control is provided on all liquids. Water jackets are used to surround the digital syringes for temperature control. For best data quality, a water bath must be used to supply water with a constant temperature to control the titration temperature.

Seawater chemistry and benthic metabolic rates as a function of coral cover from a mesocosm experiment conducted at the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences in August 2012 | The open-cell potentiometric acid titration system was developed by the laboratory of A.G. Dickson. Briefly, a known amount of seawater is added to an open cell beaker where hydrochloric acid as acidified to a pH of 3.5-4.0 and allowed to stabilize to remove CO2 gas formed by the addition of acid. Small aliquots of hydrochloric acid are then added to pH of ~ 3.0. The titration is monitored by a glass electrode and the total alkalinity of the sample is calculated using a non-linear least-squares method following Dickson et al. (2007).

Briefly, a known amount of seawater is added to an open cell temperature controlled beaker. Hydrochloric acid (0.1 N) is added using a Methrom Dosimat to a pH of 3.5-4.0. Following equilibration, small increments of hydrochloric acid are then added to the seawater until pH equals ~ 3.0. The titration is monitored by a glass electrode and the total alkalinity of the sample is calculated using a non-linear least-squares method following Dickson et al. (2007).

Monthly cross-shore transects of biogeochemical properties in La Jolla, CA | Over a 5 minute time period, the AFT-pH uses a pump and extracts 10 mL of the seawater sample, introduces the sample with mCP indicator dye and is spectrophotometrically analyzed within a pH range of 7.4 to 8.5.
| AFT-pH (SAMI, Sunburst) |
Monthly cross-shore transects of biogeochemical properties in La Jolla, CA | The open-cell potentiometric acid titration system was developed by the laboratory of A.G. Dickson. Briefly, a known amount of seawater is added to an open cell temperature controlled beaker. Hydrochloric acid (0.1 N) is added using a Methrom Dosimat to a pH of 3.5-4.0. Following equilibration, small increments of hydrochloric acid are then added to the seawater until pH equals ~ 3.0. The titration is monitored by a glass electrode and the total alkalinity of the sample is calculated using a non-linear least-squares method following Dickson et al. (2007).
