"""
Calculates latent heat, or enthalpy, of evaporation at p = 0 (the
surface). It is defined as a function of Absolute Salinity, SA, and
in-situ temperature, t, and is valid in the ranges 0 < SA < 40 g/kg and
0 < CT < 42 deg C. The errors range between -0.4 and 0.6 J/kg.
Parameters
----------
SA : array_like
Absolute salinity [g kg :sup:`-1`]
t : array_like
in situ temperature [:math:`^\circ` C (ITS-90)]
Returns
-------
latentheat_evap_t : array_like
latent heat of evaporation [J kg :sup:`-1`]
