Type

Table entries are sorted according to reliability of the data, listing the most reliable type first: L) literature review, M) measured, V) VP/AS = vapor pressure/aqueous solubility, R) recalculation, T) thermodynamical calculation, X) original paper not available, C) citation, Q) QSPR, E) estimate, ?) unknown, W) wrong. See Section 3.1 of Sander (2015) for further details.

Notes

92) Yaws and Yang (1992) give several references for the Henry's law constants but don't assign them to specific species.
113) Value at T = 294 K.
127) Solubility in sea water.
251) Probably an interpolation of the data from Balls (1980).

The numbers of the notes are the same as in Sander (2015). References cited in the notes can be found here.
