[Data Set for Seawater and Brine]

I wanted to know if you could recommend an appropriate data set for modeling seawater and/or brine systems. I am using the thermo.dat set right now and, looking at the file, it appears to support debye-huckel and b-dot activity calculations. I know that the ionic strength of seawater is way beyond the range of debye-huckel, but I'm not sure how long b-dot holds up. I was considering using thermo_pitzer.dat set, since I think the virial equations hold at much higher ionic strengths, but CO2/HCO3-/CO3-- is not included in the basis set, and carbonate minerals do not appear either. Thanks for any help!

[SOx and NOx]

Do you have any suggestions for adding data for SO2, NO and NO2 gasses? Thank you for your help.

[Running GWB on Parallels (Mac)]

Hello,

 

I am evaluating GWB, and I wanted to know if anyone had any experience running the software on the Parallels virtualization software (running Vista or XP) for the Mac. I'm hoping to be able to run GWB on my Mac laptop. Thanks for any help!
