ABOUT

This repository includes software compatible with MATLAB and GNU Octave for calculating marine CO2 system variables (CO2SYS.m), computing partial derivatives of calculated CO2 system variables with respect to inputs (derivnum.m), and propagating uncertainties for CO2 system calculations (errors.m). This software performs similarly to previously released versions of CO2SYS.m (v1: https://cdiac.ess-dive.lbl.gov/ftp/co2sys/CO2SYS_calc_MATLAB_v1.1/; v2: https://github.com/jamesorr/CO2SYS-MATLAB), and includes the following extended capabilities, additions, and bug fixes (among other minor changes):

  1. Can accept input parameters of [CO3], [HCO3], and [CO2], and propagate their uncertainties
  2. Includes NH3 and HS as alkalinity contributors, and propagates their uncertainties
  3. Uses separate inputs to specify choices for characterizations of K1K2, KSO4, KF, and TB
  4. Does not evaluate input parameters equal to -999 or NaN
  5. Exits pH iteration loops that do not converge and indicates where a problem occurred
  6. Provides exactly identical pH results for a given input line, no matter the other lines of input parameters (this is not necessarily the case for prior versions of CO2SYS.m)
  7. Uses an updated definition of the ideal gas constant (https://physics.nist.gov/cgi-bin/cuu/Value?r)
  8. Fixes bugs in CO2SYS.m Revelle factor calculation and derivnum.m output conditions
  9. Includes K1 and K2 constants defined by Sulpis et al. (2020), K2 constant defined by Schockman and Byrne (2021), KF constant defined by Perez and Fraga (1987), and KSO4 constant of Waters and Millero (2013)
  10. errors.m includes optional calcium concentration uncertainty input as discussed in Dillon et al. (2020)

Also included in this repository is a routine to compare CO2SYSv3 to CO2SYSv2 (compare_versions.m), a routine to calculate substrate-inhibitor ratios ([HCO3]/[H]; Bach, 2015) from CO2SYS output (SIR.m), a routine to calculate total concentrations of conservative elements (Na, Mg, Cl, etc.) from CO2SYS output (TOTALS.m), and an example function to run CO2SYSv3 and plot some of the output (example_CO2SYS.m).

HISTORY

CO2SYS was initially developed by Lewis and Wallace (1998) for MS DOS, later adapted for MS Excel and MATLAB by Pierrot (2006). The code was vectorized, refined, and optimized for computational speed by van Heuven (2011). Options for error propagation were added by Orr et al. (2018). This software builds upon those previous versions.

INSTALLATION AND USE

Download the files in this repository and place them in a directory that is in the MATLAB search path. Or add the directory where they are located to the search path (https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_env/add-remove-or-reorder-folders-on-the-search-path.html).

To perform CO2 system calculations, use CO2SYS.m as directed in the function's help text. All sub-routines that will be called upon are contained within the CO2SYS.m function.

To propagate uncertainties in CO2 system calculations, use errors.m as directed in the function's help text. The errors.m routine will call upon CO2SYS.m and derivnum.m. As such, this version of errors.m is compatible only with CO2SYSv3.

To compute partial derivatives of calculated CO2 system variables with respect to input parameters, use derivnum.m as directed in the function's help text. The derivnum.m routine will call upon CO2SYS.m. As such, this version of derivnum.m is compatible only with CO2SYSv3.
