gsw_pot_enthalpy_from_pt

potential enthalpy from potential temperature

Contents

USAGE:

pot_enthalpy = gsw_pot_enthalpy_from_pt(SA,pt)

DESCRIPTION:

Calculates the potential enthalpy of seawater from potential
temperature (whose reference sea pressure is zero dbar).

potential enthalpy from potential temperature.

INPUT:

SA   =  Absolute Salinity                                       [ g/kg ]
pt   =  potential temperature (ITS-90)                         [ deg C ]
SA & pt need to have the same dimensions.

OUTPUT:

pot_enthalpy  =  potential enthalpy                             [ J/kg ]

EXAMPLE:

SA = [34.7118; 34.8915; 35.0256; 34.8472; 34.7366; 34.7324;]
pt = [28.7832; 28.4209; 22.7850; 10.2305;  6.8292;  4.3245;]
pot_enthalpy = gsw_pot_enthalpy_from_pt(SA,pt)
pot_enthalpy =
