OceanRasterConversions.jl documentation
Rasters.jl provides excellent methods for reading, analysing and plotting for geospatial data. This package contains modules that are useful for analysing oceanic data (either model output or gridded observations) and is designed to be used in conjunction with Rasters.jl.
OceanRasterConversions.jl converts and computes ocean varaibles that are saved as Raster data structures using GibbsSeaWater.jl. Typically, the salt and temperature variables from ocean models or observational data are practical salinity and potential temperature so conversions must be to the TEOS-10 standard variables of absolute salinity and conservative temperature to accurately calculate further variables like seawater density. Further conversions and other water mass transformation procedures will be added in the future.
If there are any bugs and/or feature request please raise an issue on the GitHub page.
This package assumes that the missingval = missing in the Raster, RasterStack or RasterSeries. By default missingval = missing in Rasters.jl, so as long as the missingval has not been changed the modules in this package will work.
