Estimates the salinity of seawater from conductivity, temperature and
pressure. The equation is valid over ranges: temperature from -2 to 35
degrees C, pressure from 0 to 1000 bar, and salinity
from 2 to 42.
Usage
convert_RtoS(R = 1, t = 25, p = max(0, P-1.013253), P = 1.013253)
Arguments
R
Conductivity ratio, the conductivity at (S, t, P) divided
by the conductivity at S = 35, t = 15, p = 0 [-]
t
Temperature, degrees C
p
Gauge (or applied) pressure, the pressure referenced against the local
atmospheric pressure, bar
P
True pressure, bar
Value
The salinity.
Note
The conductivity ratio for Salinity = 40.0000, t = 40, p = 1000 is
1.888091.
