gsw_pressure_freezing_CT: Pressure at which Seawater Freezes

Description

Pressure at which Seawater Freezes

Usage

gsw_pressure_freezing_CT(SA, CT, saturation_fraction = 1)

Arguments

SA

Absolute Salinity [ g/kg ]

CT

Conservative Temperature [ degC ]

saturation_fraction

fraction of air in water [unitless]

Value

pressure at which freezing will occur [ dbar ]

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).
