R: Density First Derivatives wrt SA, CT and p (75-term equation)

gsw_rho_first_derivatives {gsw} | R Documentation

## Density First Derivatives wrt SA, CT and p (75-term equation)

### Description

Density First Derivatives wrt SA, CT and p (75-term equation)

### Usage

    gsw_rho_first_derivatives(SA, CT, p)

### Arguments

`SA` | Absolute Salinity [ g/kg ]
`CT` | Conservative Temperature [ degC ]
`p` | sea pressure [dbar], i.e. absolute pressure [dbar] minus 10.1325 dbar

### Details

The present R function works with a wrapper to a C function contained within the GSW-C system (Version 3.05-4 dated 2017-08-07, available at https://github.com/TEOS-10/GSW-C, as git commit '5b4d959e54031f9e972f3e863f63e67fa4f5bfec'), which stems from the GSW-Fortran system (https://github.com/TEOS-10/GSW-Fortran) which in turn stems from the GSW-Matlab system (https://github.com/TEOS-10/GSW-Matlab).

### Value

list containing drho_dSA [ kg^2/(g m^3) ], drho_dCT [ kg/(K m^3) ] and drho_dp [ kg/(Pa m^3) ]
