vapor {marelac}

Saturation Water Vapor Pressure

Description

The partial pressure of water in saturated air (pH20/P), as in Weiss and Price (1980), where P is the total atmospheric pressure, (1 atmosphere), and pH2O is the partial pressure of the water vapor.

Usage

vapor(S = 35, t = 25)

Arguments

S

Salinity (-),

t

Temperature, ^\circC.

Value

The saturation vapor pressure (-).
