olm.general.CaFromCond

olm.general.CaFromCond(cond, T_C=None, mol_L=False)[source]

Function to estimate Ca mg/L from solution specific conductance (microS/cm) using the empirical equation from Krawczyk and Ford, (2006), Earth Surface Processes and Landforms.

Parameters:
cond : float or array

specific conductance (microS/cm)

T_C : float or array

temperature in degrees Celsius

mol_L : bool, optional

if true then convert from mg/L to mol/L (default false)

Returns:
Ca : float or array

concentration of Ca in mg/L or mol/L
