def nsqfcn(s, t, p, p0, dp, lon, lat):
    """Calculate square of buoyancy frequency [rad/s]^2 for profile of
    temperature, salinity and pressure.

    The Function: (1) low-pass filters t,s,p over dp,
                  (2) linearly interpolates  t and s onto pressures, p0,
                      p0+dp, p0+2dp, ....,
                  (3) computes upper and lower potential densities at
                      p0+dp/2, p0+3dp/2,...,
                  (4) converts differences in potential density into nsq
                  (5) returns NaNs if the filtered pressure is not
                      monotonic.

    If you want to have the buoyancy frequency in [cyc/s] then
    calculate sqrt(n2)./(2*pi). For the period in [s] do sqrt(n2).*2.*pi
