摘要
A shipboard system comprising a peristaltic pump, digital pH meter, and flow-cell with pH electrode and temperature probe has been used for underway measurement of surface water pH. The high-precision pH data is logged on board with continuous records of surface temperature and salinity. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide, pCO2, in surface waters can be calculated from pH and derived alkalinities if internally consistent thermodynamic data is used. Measurements of pH, and estimations of pCO2 in the Tasman Sea and around the south of New Zealand, reveal regions where these two parameters are highly correlated with surface temperature and salinity. The discussion focuses on pH and pCO2 changes in the region of the Subtropical Convergence.
