M.Lenahan Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Is the water type calculation based on conventional units of meq/L? What is the classification criteria? I assume the dominant cation and anion even is less than 50% of total positive or negative charge? Is the default unit for piper diagrams the conventional unit of meq/L?

Brian Farrell Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Hello, The water type calculation shows the single most abundant cation and anion species, based on concentrations in meq/kg fluid. There is no requirement that a cation or anion must contribute 50% of the total positive or negative charge. Piper diagrams, along with the other specialty plots, are plotted in meq/kg fluid.
