These easy-to-use models are for the calculation of:
• Acid-base equilibria, seawater state parameters, and CaCO3 saturation in natural waters containing the ions of seawater
• Inorganic complexation of trace metals Al, Cd, Co, Cu(II), Fe(II), Fe(III), Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn 
in natural waters

The natural waters of the world do not just consist of seawater of varying salinity. It is important to be able to estimate the influence of changing natural water composition on equilibria and to understand the effects of anthropogenic change in a range of environments. These models help us to do that.
