⚠️There's a newer version (0.2.2) of this package.Take me there.

ocedata

ocedata supplies some oceanographic datasets, for general use and as an adjunct to the oce package. Indeed, some of the datasets were once supplied by oce, but they were moved to ocedata as a way to reduce storage pressure on the CRAN system, assuming that oce will be updated more frequently than ocedata.
