!
!!****  *QSATW * - function to compute saturation vapor humidity from
!!                 temperature
!!
!!    PURPOSE
!!    -------
!       The purpose of this function is to compute the saturation vapor 
!     pressure from temperature over saline seawater
!      
!
!!**  METHOD
!!    ------
!!       Given temperature T (PT) and salinity S (PSSS), the saturation vapor 
!!    pressure es(T,S) (FOES(PT,PSSS)) is computed following Weiss and Price
!!    (1980).
!!
!!      Then, the specific humidity at saturation is deduced.
