vice versa.
Usage
sw_sfac
Format
A list with the following:
longs
the longitude, a vector with 91 elements, range (0,360),
third dimension in del_sa,
lats
the latitude, second dimension in del_sa, a vector
with 44 elements, range (-82,90),
p
dbar , the first dimension in del_sa, a vector
with 45 elements, range(0,6131),
ndepth
the number of depth intervals at a certain lat,long,
a matrix of dimension (4,91),
del_sa
the salinity anomaly, an array with dimension (45,44,91),
i.e. for (p, lats, longs) values.
