gsw_enthalpy_first_derivatives_CT_exact: First Derivatives of Enthalpy wrt CT

Description

First Derivatives of Enthalpy wrt CT

Usage

gsw_enthalpy_first_derivatives_CT_exact(SA, CT, p)

Arguments

SA

Absolute Salinity [ g/kg ]

CT

Conservative Temperature [ degC ]

p

sea pressure [dbar], i.e. absolute pressure [dbar] minus 10.1325 dbar

Value

a list containing h_SA [ (J/kg)/(g/kg) ], the derivative of enthalpy wrt Absolute Salinity, and h_CT [ (J/kg)/degC ], the derivative of enthalpy wrt Conservative Temperature.

Bugs

The HTML documentation suggests that this function returns 3 values, but there are only 2 returned values in the C code used here (and the matlab code on which that is based). Also, the d/dSA check values given the HTML are not reproduced by the present function. This was reported on Mar 18, 2017 as https://github.com/TEOS-10/GSW-Matlab/issues/7. See https://github.com/TEOS-10/GSW-R/issues/34

Details

The present R function works with a wrapper to a C function contained within the GSW-C system (Version 3.05-4 dated 2017-08-07, available at https://github.com/TEOS-10/GSW-C, as git commit '5b4d959e54031f9e972f3e863f63e67fa4f5bfec'), which stems from the GSW-Fortran system (https://github.com/TEOS-10/GSW-Fortran) which in turn stems from the GSW-Matlab system (https://github.com/TEOS-10/GSW-Matlab).
