sw.S.T.rho {oce} | R Documentation |
Compute in-situ salinity, given temperature, density, and pressure.
sw.S.T.rho(t, rho, p)
t |
in-situ temperature [degC] |
rho |
in-situ density or sigma value [kg/m^3] |
p |
in-situ pressure [dbar] |
Finds the salinity that yields the given density, with the
given temperature and pressure. The method is a bisection search with
a salinity tolerance of 0.001. The isopycnal lines on
temperature-salinity diagrams (plot.TS
) are computed
with this function.
In-situ salinity [PSU].
