swTSrho: Seawater Temperature from Salinity and Density

In oce: Analysis of Oceanographic Data

Seawater Temperature from Salinity and Density

Description

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

Usage

swTSrho(
  salinity,
  density,
  pressure = NULL,
  eos = getOption("oceEOS", default = "gsw")
)

Arguments

salinity	in-situ salinity (PSU)
density	in-situ density or sigma value (kg/m^3)
pressure	in-situ pressure (dbar)
eos	equation of state to be used, either "unesco" or "gsw" (ignored at present).

Details

Finds the temperature that yields the given density, with the given salinity and pressure. The method is a bisection search with temperature tolerance 0.001 ^\circC.

Value

In-situ temperature in ^\circC on the ITS-90 scale.
