## USAGE:

    enthalpy_diff_CT_exact = gsw_enthalpy_diff_CT_exact(SA,CT,p_shallow,p_deep)

## DESCRIPTION:

    Calculates the difference of the specific enthalpy of seawater between
    two different pressures, p_deep (the deeper pressure) and p_shallow
    (the shallower pressure), at the same values of SA and CT.  The output
    (enthalpy_diff) is the specific enthalpy evaluated at (SA,CT,p_deep)
    minus the specific enthalpy at (SA,CT,p_shallow).

    Note that this function uses the full Gibbs function.  There is an
    alternative to calling this function, namely
    gsw_enthalpy_diff(SA,CT,p_shallow,p_deep), which uses the computationally
    efficient 75-term expression for specific volume in terms of SA, CT and
    p (Roquet et al., 2015).

    of enthalpy between two pressures.

## INPUT:

    SA         =  Absolute Salinity                                 [ g/kg ]
    CT         =  Conservative Temperature                         [ deg C ]
    p_shallow  =  upper sea pressure                                [ dbar ]
                  ( i.e. shallower absolute pressure - 10.1325 dbar )
    p_deep     =  lower sea pressure                                [ dbar ]
                  ( i.e. deeper absolute pressure - 10.1325 dbar )

    p_shallow and p_deep may have dimensions Mx1 or 1xN or MxN,
    where SA and CT are MxN.

## OUTPUT:

    enthalpy_diff_CT_exact  =  difference of specific enthalpy      [ J/kg ]
                           (deep minus shallow)

## EXAMPLE:

    SA =         [34.7118; 34.8915; 35.0256; 34.8472; 34.7366; 34.7324;]
    CT =         [28.8099; 28.4392; 22.7862; 10.2262;  6.8272;  4.3236;]
    p_shallow =  [     10;      50;     125;     250;     600;    1000;]
    p_deep    =  [    110;     150;     225;     350;     700;    1100;]

    enthalpy_diff_CT_exact = gsw_enthalpy_diff_CT_exact(SA,CT,p_shallow,p_deep)
