Supports the analysis of Oceanographic data, including 'ADCP'
    measurements, measurements made with 'argo' floats, 'CTD' measurements,
    sectional data, sea-level time series, coastline and topographic data, etc.
    Provides specialized functions for calculating seawater properties such as
    potential temperature in either the 'UNESCO' or 'TEOS-10' equation of state.
    Produces graphical displays that conform to the conventions of the
    Oceanographic literature. This package is discussed extensively by
    Kelley (2018) "Oceanographic Analysis with R" <doi:10.1007/978-1-4939-8844-0>.

Provides tools for easy exploration of the world ocean atlas of 
  the US agency National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). It 
  includes functions to extract NetCDF data from the repository and code to 
  visualize several physical and chemical parameters of the ocean. A Shiny app 
  further allows interactive exploration of the data. The methods for data 
  collecting and quality checks are described in several papers, which can be
  found here: <https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/world-ocean-atlas>.

Determine the sea area where the fishing boat operates. 
             The latitude and longitude of geographic coordinates are used to match oceanic areas and economic sea areas. 
	    	     You can plot the distribution map with dotplot() function.

Plotting toolbox for 2D oceanographic data (satellite data, sea surface temperature, chlorophyll, ocean fronts & bathymetry). Recognized classes and formats include netcdf, Raster, '.nc' and '.gz' files.

Functions for transforming and viewing 2-D and 3-D (oceanographic) data and model output.

Calculate ocean wave height summary statistics and process data 
    from bottom-mounted pressure sensor data loggers. Derived primarily from 
    MATLAB functions provided by U. Neumeier at
