SW_BPE Boiling point elevation of seawater
=========================================================================
USAGE: BPE = SW_BPE(T,S)
DESCRIPTION:
Boiling point elevation of seawater using Eq. (36) given in [1]
which best fit the data of [2].
INPUT: (all must have same dimensions)
T = temperature [degree C] (ITS-90)
S = salinity [g/kg] (reference-composition salinity)
OUTPUT:
BPE = boiling point elevation [K]
VALIDITY: 0 < T < 200 C; 0 < S < 120 g/kg
ACCURACY: 0.018 K
