<p>Series 1: Abiotic TEP Formation - DIC Perturbation</p> <p>Results form a series of controlled laboratory experiments investigating the effect of altered carbonate system chemistry on the abiotic formation of Transparent Exopolymer Particles (TEP).</p> <p>The over determination columns (pCO2_pH_TA, pCO2_DIC_pH, pCO2_DIC_TA) give pCO2 (calculated using CO2Sys) for samples for which we&nbsp; measured three parameters, pH, total alkalinity (TA) and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). In all others we only measured pH and TA.&nbsp; These columns each give the calculated pCO2 in uatm, using pH and TA; DIC and pH and the DIC and TA respectively for calculations.</p> <p><strong>Related Files: </strong><a href=\"http://bcodata.whoi.edu/Ocean_Acidification_and_Aggregation/Series1_The_abiotic_formation_of_TEP_under_different_ocean_acidification_scenarios_science.pdf\">Passow U (2012) The Abiotic Formation of TEP under Ocean Acidification Scenarios.
