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).

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)
