    "notes": "source_ref: Aerosol.jl@c8c640bb636b22f2425460e9ed5cba50793bfee1:src/sulfate_formation.jl:189\n\nUpstream `SulfateFormationFe` is an MTK `@component` with one `@constants` entry (k_low_pH, the low-pH Fe(III) rate constant), four time-indexed `@variables` (H_plus, Fe_III, S_IV_total, R_Fe), and a single equation:\n  • Eq. 7.92: R_Fe ~ k_low_pH * Fe_III * S_IV_total / H_plus — S(IV) oxidation rate by Fe(III)-catalyzed dissolved O2 in the low-pH (pH 0-3.6) regime.\nThe equation is algebraic (a plain `lhs ~ rhs` with no `D(·)` time derivative); the component has no differential state anywhere.\n\nScope (upstream simplification): Seinfeld & Pandis Section 7.5.3 gives four pH-regime rate laws for the Fe(III)-catalyzed pathway (Eq. 7.92 pH 0-3.6, Eq. 7.93 pH≈4, Eq. 7.94 pH 5-6, Eq. 7.95 pH 7). The upstream component deliberately implements only the low-pH law Eq. 7.92, \"most relevant for typical cloud droplet conditions\" per its docstring; this migration preserves that single-regime scope symbol-for-symbol. The default H_plus = 1.0 mol/m^3 (pH 3) is chosen inside the pH 0-3.6 validity window.\n\nObservability classification: observed-only. With no differential state, MTK `mtkcompile`/`structural_simplify` reduces the raw 4-unknown / 1-equation `System(eqs, t)` to zero ODE states plus the algebraically-recovered output R_Fe. R_Fe is therefore encoded as `type: observed`, carrying its defining relation in its `expression` field, and the `equations` array is empty — the post-`mtkcompile` representation, matching sibling observed-only migrations reaction.esm and aqueous_eq.esm.\n\nInput handling: H_plus, Fe_III and S_IV_total are upstream `@variables` that carry no defining equation — they are model inputs supplied by coupling within the full `SulfateFormation` system. The ESS schema has no \"connected input\" variable type, so each migrates as `type: parameter` with a fixed, physically-representative default — the convention applied across the migrated component set for connected `@variable` inputs. Re-typing the three inputs as parameters leaves R_Fe as a pure function of parameters, which is exactly the observed-only form above.\n\nConstant handling: the upstream `@constants k_low_pH = 6.0` migrates as a `type: parameter` with a fixed default — the ESS schema has no constant variable type, so every `@constant` becomes a fixed-default parameter. No unit conversion is applied: k_low_pH stays 6.0 s^-1 because the concentration ratio Fe_III·S_IV_total/H_plus carries a single net factor of 1000 between mol/L and mol/m^3 units, the same factor by which the rate R_Fe scales, so the rate constant is invariant under the concentration-unit choice. (Contrast the sibling O3/H2O2/Mn rate constants, which DO carry explicit /1000 or /1e6 factors in the source because their concentration products do not cancel a single power.)\n\nTests: the upstream test suite (test/aqueous_chemistry_test.jl, \"SulfateFormation structure\") exercises this component only structurally — it asserts `sys isa System` and `length(equations(sys)) >= 1`, with no numeric assertions on R_Fe. The seven inline tests below are therefore authored directly from the analytic formula R_Fe = k·[Fe(III)]·[S(IV)]/[H+], evaluated in float64 at the declared defaults or a single-parameter override. Because R_Fe is algebraic and time-independent, `default_conditions` asserts at both t=0 and t=1 to confirm time-invariance; the remaining tests assert at t=0. Coverage sweeps the catalyst (Fe_III ×10 / ×0.1), the substrate (S_IV_total ×10 / ×0.1), and the acidity (strongly/weakly acidic, spanning the pH 0-3.6 regime), confirming the proportionalities R_Fe ∝ [Fe(III)], R_Fe ∝ [S(IV)] and R_Fe ∝ 1/[H+] respectively.\n\nTolerance rationale (model-level rel=1e-9): observed-only algebraic system, no ODE integration. R_Fe is a three-factor product followed by a division; float64 round-off is ~1e-16 relative, so rel=1e-9 leaves seven orders of magnitude of headroom and absorbs any associativity difference in the n-ary product k·Fe·S_IV. The pinned expected values are the exact analytic results of the textbook formula, so the migration is checkable against Eq. 7.92, not merely against a prior solver run.\n\nUnit balance (verified):\n  R_Fe `k_low_pH * Fe_III * S_IV_total / H_plus`: s^-1 · (mol/m^3) · (mol/m^3) / (mol/m^3) = s^-1 · mol/m^3 = mol/(m^3·s) = mol/m^3/s\nSI throughout; no unit conversion at parse or runtime."
