gsw_pot_enthalpy_from_pt_ice_poly

potential enthalpy from potential temperature of 
ice (polynomial)

Contents

USAGE:

pot_enthalpy = gsw_pot_enthalpy_from_pt_ice_poly(pt0_ice)

DESCRIPTION:

Calculates the potential enthalpy of seawater from potential
temperature (whose reference sea pressure is zero dbar). This is is a 
computationally efficient polynomial fit to the potential enthalpy of 
ice.

INPUT:

pt0_ice  =  potential temperature of ice (ITS-90)              [ deg C ]

OUTPUT:

pot_enthalpy_ice  =  potential enthalpy of ice                  [ J/kg ]

EXAMPLE:

pt0_ice = [-10.7856; -13.4329; -12.8103; -12.2600; -10.8863; -8.4036;]
pot_enthalpy_ice = gsw_pot_enthalpy_from_pt_ice_poly(pt0_ice)
pot_enthalpy_ice =
