Dear Roy Thanks for clarification.
> pH_of_sea_water_defined_by_mole_concentration_of_hydrogen_ion_per_unit_mass > (free scale) > pH_of_sea_water_defined_by_mole_concentration_of_hydrogen_ion_per_unit_volume > (NBS) In other standard names, "mole concentration" means mol m-3. So the second should be > pH_of_sea_water_defined_by_mole_concentration_of_hydrogen_ion (NBS) In existing names, we say "moles per unit mass" for mol kg-1. So the first is > pH_of_sea_water_defined_by_moles_of_hydrogen_ion_per_unit_mass (free scale) OK? My main argument for plain pH_of_sea_water is that in many ocean models these two quantities would be identical.
