Draw isopycnal curves on an existing temperature-salinity plot

Description

Draw isopycnal curves on an existing temperature-salinity plot

Usage

draw.isopycnals(rho.levels=6, rotate.rho.labels=TRUE, rho1000=FALSE, cex=1, col="darkgray", lwd=par("lwd"), lty=par("lty"))

Arguments

rho.levels suggested number of density levels (i.e. isopycnal curves).
rotate.rho.labels boolean, set to TRUE to write all density labels horizontally.
rho1000 boolean, set to TRUE to write isopycnal labels as e.g. 1024 instead of 24.
cex size for labels.
col colour for lines and labels.
lwd line width for isopcynal curves
lty line type for isopcynal curves

Details

Adds isopycnal lines to an existing temperature-salinity plot. This is called by plot.TS, and may be called by the user also, e.g. if an image plot is used to show TS data density.

Value

None.
