In afsc-gap-products/gapctd: Process CTD data from bottom trawl surveys

Objective function for cell thermal mass calculations (R workflow)

Description

Calculates area between temperature and salinity curves when upcast and downcast data are provided. Calculates path distance for salinity if only downcast or upcast is provided.

Usage

ctm_obj(dc = NULL, uc = NULL, alpha_C, beta_C, area_method = "ts")

Arguments

dc	Downcast oce object
uc	Upcast oce object
alpha_C	Conductivity cell thermal inertia correction alpha parameter, passed to gapctd::conductivity_correction()
beta_C	Conductivity cell thermal inertia correction beta parameter, passed to gapctd::conductivity_correction()
area_method	Area between temperature-salinity ("ts") curves, depth-salinity curves ("zs"), or pressure-salinity curves ("ps")

Value

Area between T-S curves, Z-S curves, or path distance of salinity curve as a 1L numeric vector
