The aqueous carbon dioxide (CO2) system stoichiometric dissociation constantsK1andK2express the relative concentrations of CO2, HCO3−(bicarbonate), and CO32−(carbonate) in terms of pH. These constants are critical in the study of seawater and the oceans because any mathematical expression that relates the four major CO2system parameters (pH, here expressed on the total hydrogen ion concentration scale, pHT; total dissolved inorganic carbon,CT; total alkalinity,AT; and CO2fugacity,fCO2) requires the use ofK1andK2. Uncertainties associated with current characterizations of pK1and pK2(where pK= −logK), on the order of 0.01 and 0.02, limit the accuracy of marine CO2system calculations. This work reports the results of a spectrophotometric method to experimentally determine the productK1K2over environmentally relevant ranges of temperature (288.15 ≤T≤ 308.15 K) and salinity (19.6 ≤Sp≤ 41) whereSpdenotes the practical salinity scale. Using previously published parameterizations ofK1, values of pK2could then be calculated from the newK1K2values. The resulting set of pK2values was fitted as a function ofSpandTto obtain a new pK2parameterization (denoted asSWpK2) calculated with theK1of Waters and Millero (2013) as revised by Waters et al. (2014):SWpK2= 116.8067 − 3655.02T−1− 16.45817 lnT+ 0.04523Sp− 0.615Sp0.5− 0.0002799Sp2+ 4.969 (Sp/T)The average root mean square deviation between the equation and the observed data is 0.003. Residuals of this pK2fitting function (i.e., measured pK2minus parameterized pK2) are substantially smaller than the residuals obtained in previous works. Similarly, the total standard uncertainty in pK2is reduced from 0.015 (previous characterizations) to 0.010 (this work). Internal consistency assessments (comparisons of measured versus calculated values ofAT,CT, pHT, andfCO2) were used to evaluate the computational utility of the newK2parameterization. Assessments from both laboratory and shipboard data indicate that the internal consistency of CO2system calculations is improved using theK2parameterization of this work. This newK2parameterization provides the most precise, and potentially the most accurate, bicarbonate dissociation constant characterization presently available for open ocean conditions.
