Supports the analysis of Oceanographic data, including ADCP
 measurements, CTD measurements, sectional data, sea-level time series,
 coastline files, etc.  Handles dozens of specialized functions for calculating
 seawater properties such as potential temperature and density, as well as
 derived properties such as buoyancy frequency and dynamic height. Map projections
 are calculated using PROJ.4 functions included within the oce.

met-class function

Accessing values. For an object named <code>m</code>, temperature may be
 accessed as <code>m[["time"]]</code>, which yields a vector. Similarly pressure
 is <code>m[["pressure"]]</code>. The components of wind are stored in
 oceanographic convention, i.e. the eastward component is available
 as <code>m[["u"]]</code> and the northward component is <code>m[["v"]]</code>.
 <code>m[["u"]]</code>, and wind direction is <code>m[["direction"]]</code>. The
 filename from which the data came (if any) may be found with
 <code>m[["filename"]]</code>. Items in <code>metadata</code> must be specifield by
 full name, but those in <code>data</code> may be abbreviated, so long as the
 abbreviation is unique.
 
 Assigning values. Everything that may be accessed may also be
 assigned, e.g. <code>m[["temperature"]] &lt;- 1 + m[["temperature"]]</code>
 increases temperature by 1C. Overview of contents. The <code>show</code> method (e.g.
 <code>show(met)</code>) displays information about the object.
