classes

Supports the analysis of Oceanographic data, including ADP
        measurements, CTD measurements, sectional data, sea-level time
        series, 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

drifter-class function

Data may be accessed as e.g. <code>pt[["time"]]</code>, where the
    string could also be <code>"latitude"</code> or <code>"longitude"</code>.  The profile
    data are available in <code>"salinity"</code>, <code>"temperature"</code> and
    <code>"pressure"</code>, each of which is a matrix with first index corresponding
    to depth and second index corresponding to profile number.  Assignment to
    these can be made with e.g. <code>drifter[["latitude"]] &lt;- value</code>, etc.
    Indeed, any quantity in the <code>metadata</code> slot or the <code>data</code> slot
    can be retrieved or updated in this way.
