UKCA & UMUI Tutorial 8

Adding Wet Deposition

The formulationn used in UKCA is described in Giannakopoulos (1999)[1]. This scheme uses the following formula to calculate the effective Henry's Law coefficient

Failed to parse (unknown function "\deltaH"): {\displaystyle H_{eff} = k(298) \textrm{exp} \left(-\frac{\deltaH{/R}\left[\left(\frac{1}{T} - \frac{1}{298}\right]\right) }

! The following formula is used to calculate the effective Henry's Law coef,
! which takes the affects of dissociation and complex formation on a species'
! solubility (see Giannakopoulos, 1998)
!
!       H(eff) = K(298)exp{[-deltaH/R]x[(1/T)-(1/298)]}
!
! The data in columns 1 and 2 above give the data for this gas-aqueous transfer,
!       Column 1 = K(298) [M/atm]
!       Column 2 = -deltaH/R [K-1]
!
! If the species dissociates in the aqueous phase the above term is multiplied by
! another factor of 1+{K(aq)/[H+]}, where
!       K(aq) = K(298)exp{[-deltaH/R]x[(1/T)-(1/298)]}
! The data in columns 3 and 4 give the data for this aqueous-phase dissociation,
!       Column 3 = K(298) [M]
!       Column 4 = -deltaH/R [K-1]
! The data in columns 5 and 6 give the data for a second dissociation,
! e.g for SO2, HSO3^{-}, and SO3^{2-}
!       Column 5 = K(298) [M]
!       Column 6 = -deltaH/R [K-1]
