unitFromStringRsk

Vector of character strings, holding the <code>units</code> entry in the
<code>channels</code> table of the <code>.rsk</code> database.

This is used by <code><a rd-options="=read.rsk" href="/link/read.rsk()?package=oce&version=1.7-2&to=%3Dread.rsk" data-mini-rdoc="=read.rsk::read.rsk()">read.rsk()</a></code> to infer the units of data, based
on strings stored in <code>.rsk</code> files. Lacking a definitive guide
to the format of these file, this function was based on visual inspection
of the data contained within a few sample files; unusual sensors may
not be handled properly.

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>.
