 * @brief      Source file for the World Magnetic Model
 *             This is a port of code available from the US NOAA.
 *
 *             The hard coded coefficients should be valid until 2015.
 *
 *             Updated coeffs from ..
 *             http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomag/WMM/wmm_ddownload.shtml
 *
 *             NASA C source code ..
 *             http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomag/WMM/wmm_wdownload.shtml
 *
 *             Major changes include:
 *                - No geoid model (altitude must be geodetic WGS-84)
 *                - Floating point calculation (not double precision)
 *                - Hard coded coefficients for model
 *                - Elimination of user interface
 *                - Elimination of dynamic memory allocation

                  dPcup:   Derivative of Pcup(x) with respect to latitude
            Notes:

          Adopted from the FORTRAN code written by Mark Wieczorek September 25, 2005.

          Manoj Nair, Nov, 2009 Manoj.C.Nair@Noaa.Gov

          Change from the previous version
          The prevous version computes the derivatives as
          dP(n,m)(x)/dx, where x = sin(latitude) (or cos(colatitude) ).
          However, the WMM Geomagnetic routines requires dP(n,m)(x)/dlatitude.
          Hence the derivatives are multiplied by sin(latitude).
          Removed the options for CS phase and normalizations.

          Note: In geomagnetism, the derivatives of ALF are usually found with
          respect to the colatitudes. Here the derivatives are found with respect
          to the latitude. The difference is a sign reversal for the derivative of
          the Associated Legendre Functions.

          The derivates can't be computed for latitude = |90| degrees.
