Solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas above the liquid. Solubility of a gas is inversely proportional to temperature.

So, the solubility of carbon dioxide gas in water is increased by increasing the partial pressure of carbon dioxide and by decreasing the temperature.
