misc

Supports the analysis of Oceanographic data, including ADP
        measurements, CTD measurements, sectional data, sea-level
        timeseries, coastline files, etc. Provides functions for
        calculating seawater properties such as potential temperature
        and density, as well as derived properties such as buoyancy
        frequency and dynamic height.

Analysis of Oceanographic data

topoMaritimes function

The dataset was downloaded in late 2008 from the NOAA website,
  with a longitude box from 70W to 55W and a latitude box from 43N to
  53N, using the ETOPO1 database, which has 1-minute resolution in
  latitude and longitude, and 0.1m resolution in the vertical.  The
  data were downloaded with an ascii header and ascii-raster format,
  so that <code><a href="/link/read.topo?package=oce&version=0.2-1" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="oce::read.topo">read.topo</a></code> could handle the resultant
  downloaded file without modification, as shown below.
