as.lisst

A table (or matrix) containing 42 columns, as in a LISST data
file.

data

filename

Year in which the first observation was made. This is necessary
because LISST timestamps do not indicate the year of observation. The
default value is odd enough to remind users to include this argument.

year

Timezone of observations. This is necessary because LISST
timestamps do not indicate the timezone.

longitude

latitude

Coerce data into a lisst object
If <code>data</code> contains fewer than 42 columns, an error is reported. If it
contains more than 42 columns, only the first 42 are used. This is used by
<code><a rd-options="" href="/link/read.lisst?package=oce&version=1.1-1" data-mini-rdoc="oce::read.lisst">read.lisst</a></code>, the documentation on which explains the meanings
of the columns.

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 in
Dan Kelley's book Oceanographic Analysis with R, published
in 2018 by 'Springer-Verlag' with ISBN 978-1-4939-8842-6.
