Supplied Name: 
delta_Ne
Supplied Units: 
%
Conversion Necessary: 
no
Description: 

Gas Saturation Anomaly expressed in percent. Defined as:

delta_Ne = (C(Ne)/C*(Ne)-1)*100%

where C(Ne) is the concentration of neon in seawater (as reported) in units of nmol/kg, and C*(Ne) is the solubility concentration in the same for neon at the potential temperature and salinity

of the water computed from the solubility relations measured in the laboratory by Weiss (1971).
