Description

Obtain metadata for variables associated with the Extending Ocean Drilling Pursuits (eODP) project. By default, data for all drilling sites are returned.

Usage

def_drilling_sites(program = NULL, exp = NULL, site = NULL, sf = FALSE)

Arguments

program

character. The name of a drilling program (i.e., "DSDP", "ODP", or "IODP") to return a definition for.

exp

character. The unique identification number(s) of drilling expedition(s) to return a definition for (formerly known as 'leg(s)').
