  abstract = {We present, by means of a simple example, a comprehensive step-by-step procedure to consistently derive a {pH} model of aquatic systems. As {pH} modelling is inher- ently complex, we make every step of the model generation process explicit, thus ensuring conceptual, mathematical, and chemical correctness. Summed quantities, such as total inor- ganic carbon and total alkalinity, and the influences of mod- eled processes on them are consistently derived. The dif- ferent time scales of processes involved in the {pH} problem (biological and physical reactions: days; aquatic chemical reactions: fractions of seconds) give rise to a stiff equation system. Subsequent reformulations of the system reduce its stiffness, accepting higher non-linear algebraic complexity. The model is reformulated until numerically and computa- tionally simple dynamical solutions, like a variation of the operator splitting approach ({OSA}) and the direct substitution approach ({DSA}), are obtained. As several solution methods are pointed out, connections between previous {pH} modelling approaches are established. The final reformulation of the system according to the {DSA} allows for quantification of the influences of kinetic processes on the rate of change of proton concentration in models containing multiple biogeochemical processes. These influences are calculated including the ef- fect of re-equilibration of the system due to a set of acid-base reactions in local equilibrium. This possibility of quantify- ing influences of modeled processes on the {pH} makes the end-product of the described model generation procedure a powerful tool for understanding the internal {pH} dynamics of aquatic systems.},
