R: Alter longitudes from -180:180 to 0:360 convention

lon360 {oce} | R Documentation

## Alter longitudes from -180:180 to 0:360 convention

### Description

For numerical input, including vectors, matrices and arrays, `lon360()` simply calls `ifelse()` to add 360 to any negative values. For section objects, it changes `longitude` in the `metadata` slot and then calls itself to handle the ctd objects stored as as the entries in `station` within the `data` slot. For this ctd object, and indeed for all non-section objects, `lon360()` changes `longitude` values in the `metadata` slot (if present) and also in the `data` slot (again, if present). This function is not useful for dealing with coastline data; see `coastlineCut()` for such data.

### Usage

    lon360(x)

### Arguments

`x` | either a numeric vector or array, or an oce object.

### Examples

    lon360(c(179, -179))
