gsw_p_from_z: Pressure from z

Description

Pressure from z

Usage

gsw_p_from_z(z, latitude, geo_strf_dyn_height = 0,
  sea_surface_geopotential = 0)

Arguments

z

height, zero at surface (but note last 2 args) and positive upwards [ m ]

latitude

latitude in decimal degrees north [ -90 ... +90 ]

geo_strf_dyn_height

dynamic height anomaly [ m^2/s^2 ]

sea_surface_geopotential

geopotential at zero sea pressure [ m^2/s^2 ]

Value

sea pressure [ dbar ]
