SUMMARY

Air equilibrated water refers to water that has reached a state of equilibrium with the surrounding air, specifically in terms of gas exchange. This concept is discussed in the context of ISO standards, where researchers have developed complex systems to produce air equilibrated water at various temperatures and salinities. The process involves allowing water to stand open to the atmosphere, enabling it to balance with the ambient air conditions. This topic is crucial for understanding water quality and environmental studies.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of ISO standards related to water quality
  • Basic knowledge of gas exchange principles in liquids
  • Familiarity with water sampling techniques
  • Knowledge of temperature and salinity effects on water properties
NEXT STEPS
  • Research ISO 5667 standards for water sampling
  • Study gas exchange dynamics in aquatic environments
  • Explore methods for measuring salinity and temperature in water
  • Investigate the implications of air equilibrated water in environmental monitoring
USEFUL FOR

Environmental scientists, water quality researchers, and professionals involved in ISO standard compliance will benefit from this discussion on air equilibrated water.

I was reviewing an ISO standard and a reference was made to "air equilibrated water."

Anyone know what it is? I'm guessing it's water left standing open that comes into equilibrium with the air around it, but I don't really know.

I believe you guessed correctly. My curiosity piqued, I inquired of google. In this reference, researchers construct an elaborate system to produce it to order at various temperatures and salinities. http://faculty.washington.edu/emerson/links/Papers/HammeEmerson_DSR04.pdf
 
Wow. Elaborate system it was!

Thanks as I came up with nothing with my internet search.
