argo-class {oce} | R Documentation

## Class to hold argo data

### Description

This class stores data from argo drifters. It will be in fairly active development in the early months of 2016.

### Details

An `argo` object may be read with `read.argo` or created with `as.argo`. Argo data can be gridded to constant pressures with `argoGrid`. Plots can be made with `plot.argo`, while `summary.argo` produces statistical summaries and `show` produces overviews. The usual oce generic functions are available, e.g. `[[,argo-method` may be used to extract data, and `[[<-,argo-method` may be used to insert data.

See http://www.argo.ucsd.edu/Gridded_fields.html for some argo-related datasets that may be useful in a wider context.
