I believe this request has been pending for a long time now, with no
comments since May 26. Can we finalize it? (Please?)
sea_water_pH_reported_on_total_scale:
The measure of acidity of sea water, defined as the negative logarithm
of the concentration of dissolved hydrogen
ions plus bisulfate ions in a seawater medium; it can be measured or
calculated; when measured the scale is defined according to a series
of buffers prepared in artificial seawater containing bisulfate.
pH(total) = - log([H+](free) + [HSO4-]). [canonical units = moles/kg ].
