gsw_rho_second_derivatives: Second Derivatives of Density

Description

Second Derivatives of Density

Usage

gsw_rho_second_derivatives(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 rho_SA_SA [ (kg/m^3)/(g/kg)^2 ], the second derivative of density with respect to Absolute Salinity, rho_SA_CT [ (g/kg)/(g/kg)/degC ], the derivative of density with respect to Absolute Salinity and Conservative Temperature, and rho_CT_CT [ (kg/m^3)/degC^2 ], the second derivative of density with respect to Conservative Temperature.

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).
