| Abstract: | The CO2-seawaler system and the method for calculating the partial pressure of CO2 (pCO3) in seawater are stu-died. The buffer capability of the ocean to increasing atmospheric CO2, is expressed in terms of the differential buffer factor and buffer index. Dissolutions of aragonite and calcite have a significant influence on the differential buffer factor. The trend of change in the buffer factor is obtained by a box model. |
