gsw_cabbeling_CT25

cabbeling coefficient (25-term equation)

Contents

USAGE:

[cabbeling_CT25, in_funnel] = gsw_cabbeling_CT25(SA,CT,p)

DESCRIPTION:

Calculates the cabbeling coefficient of seawater with respect to
Conservative Temperature.  This function uses the computationally-
efficient 25-term expression for density in terms of SA, CT and p
(McDougall et al., 2010)
TEOS-10

coefficient.

INPUT:

SA  =  Absolute Salinity                                        [ g/kg ]
CT  =  Conservative Temperature                                [ deg C ]
p   =  sea pressure                                             [ dbar ]
       (ie. absolute pressure - 10.1325 dbar)
SA & CT need to have the same dimensions.
p may have dimensions 1x1 or Mx1 or 1xN or MxN, where SA & CT are MxN.

OUTPUT:

cabbeling_CT25  =  cabbeling coefficient with respect        [ 1/(K^2) ]
                   to Conservative Temperature.
in_funnel       =  0, if SA, CT and p are outside the "funnel"
                =  1, if SA, CT and p are inside the "funnel"
Note. The term "funnel" describes the range of SA, CT and p over which
  the error in the fit of the computationally-efficient 25-term
  expression for density was calculated (McDougall et al., 2010).

EXAMPLE:

SA = [34.7118; 34.8915; 35.0256; 34.8472; 34.7366; 34.7324;]
CT = [28.8099; 28.4392; 22.7862; 10.2262;  6.8272;  4.3236;]
p =  [     10;      50;     125;     250;     600;    1000;]
[cabbeling_CT25, in_funnel] = gsw_cabbeling_CT25(SA,CT,p);
cabbeling_CT25 =                    in_funnel =
