Detailed Description

Module for manipulating data from NASA GSFC SeaBASS files.

Author: Joel Scott, SAIC / NASA GSFC Ocean Ecology Lab

Notes:
* This module is designed to work with files that have been properly
  formatted according to SeaBASS guidelines (i.e. Files that passed FCHECK).
  Some error checking is performed, but improperly formatted input files
  could cause this script to error or behave unexpectedly. Files
  downloaded from the SeaBASS database should already be properly formatted, 
  however, please email seabass@seabass.gsfc.nasa.gov and/or the contact listed
  in the metadata header if you identify problems with specific files.

* It is always HIGHLY recommended that you check for and read any metadata
  header comments and/or documentation accompanying data files. Information 
  from those sources could impact your analysis.

* Compatibility: This module was developed for Python 3.6, using Python 3.6.3
