Arguments

Sstar

Preformed Salinity [ g/kg ]

p

sea pressure [ dbar ]

longitude

longitude in decimal degrees [ 0 to 360 or -180 to 180]

latitude

latitude in decimal degrees [ -90 to 90 ]

Details

If Sstar is a matrix and if its dimensions correspond to the lengths of longitude and latitude, then the latter are converted to analogous matrices with expand.grid.

Value

Absolute Salinity [ g/kg ]
