The results provide much improved control on the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;P&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;-&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;T&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;-&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;x&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;critical line in this region. The critical point of seawater (3.2 wt% NaCl solution), which is bracketed in the present study, is at 407&amp;deg;C and 298.5 bar. In addition, the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;P&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;-&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;T&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;two-phase boundary of seawater was re-determined. These results provide increased precision and accuracy for theoretical models of critical phenomena in this important two-component system and of the limiting&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;P&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;-&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;T&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;conditions of seawater in seafloor geothermal systems.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
