USAGE:
SP_baltic = gsw_SP_from_SA_Baltic(SA,long,lat)
DESCRIPTION:
Calculates Practical Salinity for the Baltic Sea, from a value computed
analytically from Absolute Salinity.
Note. This program will only produce Practical Salinty values for the
Baltic Sea.
INPUT:
SA = Absolute Salinity in the Baltic Sea [ g/kg ]
long = Longitude in decimal degress east [ 0 ... +360 ]
lat = Latitude in decimal degress north [ -90 ... +90 ]
OUTPUT:
SP_baltic = Practical Salinity [ unitless ]
EXAMPLE:
SA = [6.6699; 6.7738; 6.9130; 7.3661; 7.5862; 10.3895;]
long = [ 20; 20; 20; 20; 20; 20;]
lat = [ 59; 59; 59; 59; 59; 59;]
SP_baltic = gsw_SP_from_SA_Baltic(SA,long,lat)
SP_baltic =
