Abstract

<p> pCO2 is a dominant factor for controlling CO2 exchange between air and water. Based oncarbonate chemistry, we estimated the precision of pCO2 in waters of Tokyo Bay, Osaka Bay, and the Fukido estuary, Ishigaki, Okinawa.</p><p> We evaluated the precisions of reported formulas for dissociation contents of carbonic acid required for calculating pCO2. Millero (2010) achieved the highest precision in Tokyo Bay, while Schockman et al. (2021) did in Osaka Bay and the Fukido estuary. The precision of estimated pCO2 based on portable pH and salinity sensors exceeded 190 μatm; it was significantly larger when pCO2 was above 800 μatm. Below a pCO2 value of 800 μatm, the precision based on total alkalinity estimated by salinity was less than 34μatm (13.13%). By contrast, the precision based on portable pH sensors (precision of 0.1 or greater) was greater and varied between 73 – 171 μatm (13.16 – 64.88%). The pCO2 calculated from the pH and salinity is subject to errors in both observations. Therefore, the validity of the values should be studied by considering that atmospheric pCO2 is around 400 μatm.</p>
