sw.T.S.rho: Seawater temperature from salinity and density

Description

Compute in-situ temperature, given salinity, density, and pressure.

Usage

temperature <- sw.T.S.rho(S, sig, p);

Arguments

S
in-situ salinity [PSU]
sig
in-situ density or sigma value [$kg/m^3$]
p
in-situ pressure [dbar]

Value

  • In-situ temperature [$^\circ C$].

Details

Finds the temperature that, with the given salinity and pressure, yields the given density.
