The page may not respond for a while - this is just the process running in the background. A textbox will show at the bottom of the page with a log of the processing.

3. Open the Excel file and enter the Silicate, Phosphate, Temperature and Salinity data. Be sure to check that the standard CRM DIC and TA batch values are correct.

4. Enter the name of the Excel file and click on Recalculate DIC and TA. The page will be inactive while the process runs in the background (rarely more than 15 seconds). The output will be saved to the excel file. The processing log will also appear in the textbox at the bottom of the page.
