## USAGE:

    latentheat_evap_t = gsw_latentheat_evap_t(SA,t,p)

## DESCRIPTION:

    Calculates latent heat of evaporation of water from seawater
    (isobaric evaporation enthalpy) with in-situ temperature, t, as
    input temperature at p = 0 (the surface).  It is defined as a
    function of Absolute Salinity, SA, and in-situ temperature, t,
    and is valid in the ranges 0 < SA < 40 g/kg and 0 < CT < 42 deg C.
    The errors range between -0.4 and 0.6 J/kg.

    latent heat of evaporation.

## INPUT:

    SA  =  Absolute Salinity                                        [ g/kg ]
    t   =  in-situ temperature                                     [ deg C ]

    SA & t need to have the same dimensions.

## OUTPUT:

    latentheat_evap_t  =  latent heat of evaporation               [ deg C ]

## 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;]

    latentheat_evap_t = gsw_latentheat_evap_t(SA,t)
