If you look at AMBERHOME/dat/leap/parm/parm99.dat, you will find
"adapted" Aqvist ion parameters. The original paper used different
mixing rules than Amber uses, so the "adaptation" sets the interaction
parameters for TIP3P water to be what was originally proposed. These
parameters would not make sense for other water models.
I feel constrained to point out that these parameters are nearly 30
years old, and that a lot of work (especially in the past few years) has
gone into exploring Mg2+ parameters designed to be used with many
different water models, and in a variety of circumstances. See the
references in the "Ions" section of the Amber 2018 Reference Manual.
