gsw_Krsol_SP_pt

solubility of Kr in seawater

Contents

USAGE:

Krsol = gsw_Krsol_SP_pt(SP,pt)

DESCRIPTION:

Calculates the krypton, Kr, concentration expected at equilibrium with  
air at an Absolute Pressure of 101325 Pa (sea pressure of 0 dbar) 
including saturated water vapor.  This function uses the solubility 
coefficients derived from the data of Weiss and Kyser (1978).
Note that this algorithm has not been approved by IOC and is not work 
from SCOR/IAPSO Working Group 127. It is included in the GSW
Oceanographic Toolbox as it seems to be oceanographic best practice.

INPUT:

SP  =  Practical Salinity  (PSS-78)                         [ unitless ]
pt  =  potential temperature                                   [ deg C ]
       with reference sea pressure (pr) = 0 dbar.
SP & pt need to have the same dimensions.

OUTPUT:

Krsol = solubility of krypton                                [ umol/kg ]

EXAMPLE:

SP = [34.7118; 34.8915; 35.0256; 34.8472; 34.7366; 34.7324;]
pt = [28.8099; 28.4392; 22.7862; 10.2262;  6.8272;  4.3236;]
Krsol = gsw_Krsol_SP_pt(SP,pt)
Krsol =
