swPressure(depth, latitude = 45, eos = getOption("oceEOS", default = "gsw"))distance below the surface in metres.
Latitude in \(^\circ\)N.
indication of formulation to be used, either "unesco" or
"gsw".
Pressure in dbar.
If eos="unesco" this is done by numerical inversion of
swDepth() is done using uniroot(). If
eos="gsw", it is done using gsw::gsw_p_from_z() in the
gsw package.
