tempToSs.RdCalculate speed of sound from water temperature, salinity and depth Based on H. Medwin (1975) Speed of sound in water: A simple equation for realistic parameters. (https://doi.org/10.1121/1.380790)
tempToSs(temp, sal, depth = 5)
| temp | Water temperature in degrees Celcius |
|---|---|
| sal | Water slinity in parts per thousand (promille) |
| depth | Depth in meters - default = 5 m - can typically be ignored |
