ABSTRACT

An efficient and accurate scheme of calculating transformations between potential density, potential temperature and salinity is suggested. The scheme is based on an analytical Pade approximation and allow to increase computational efficiency of the layered ocean model (HYCOM). An efficient approximation of thermodynamic functions used in layered ocean models.
