γw, values calculated from sea water data.

γx, values obtained by graphical extrapolation of data.

γe, values obtained by direct measurement.

γc, values obtained by correction of γe for drift observed between measured values at 35 °C. Drift assumed to be due to a partial loss of carbon dioxide assumed to be complete at 75 °C. No such significant drift could be established in the solution measurements.
