## USAGE:

    cp_t_exact = gsw_cp_t_exact(SA,t,p)

## DESCRIPTION:

    Calculates the isobaric heat capacity of seawater.

    heat capacity.

## INPUT:

    SA   =   Absolute Salinity                                      [ g/kg ]
    t    =   in-situ temperature (ITS-90)                          [ deg C ]
    p    =   sea pressure                                           [ dbar ]
            ( ie. absolute pressure - 10.1325 dbar )

    SA & t need to have the same dimensions.
    p may have dimensions 1x1 or Mx1 or 1xN or MxN, where SA & t are MxN.

## OUTPUT:

    cp_t_exact   =   heat capacity of seawater                          [ J/(kg*K) ]

## EXAMPLE:

    SA = [34.7118; 34.8915; 35.0256; 34.8472; 34.7366; 34.7324;]
    t =  [28.7856; 28.4329; 22.8103; 10.2600;  6.8863;  4.4036;]
    p =  [     10;      50;     125;     250;     600;    1000;]

    cp_t_exact = gsw_cp_t_exact(SA,t,p)

    cp_t_exact =
