swSpiciness0: Spiciness in gsw System, Referenced to Surface Pressure

Description

Computes seawater spiciness using gsw::gsw_spiciness0() for surface referenced computation.

Usage

swSpiciness0(salinity, temperature, pressure, longitude, latitude)

Value

seawater spiciness with respect to a reference pressure of 0 dbar (that is, the sea surface), as defined in the gsw (TEOS-10) system (McDougall et al, 2011).

Arguments

salinity

either salinity, or an oce object that contains salinity, temperature, pressure, longitude and latitude.

temperature

in-situ temperature (ignored if salinity is an oce object)

pressure

seawater pressure in dbar (ignored if salinity is an oce object)

longitude, latitude

observation location (ignored if salinity is an oce object).
