DO_adjust_units: convert dissolved oxygen from mg/L to percent saturation

In acgold/compensateR: Temperature and salinity compensation for water quality sensor data

Description

DO_convert_units accepts dissolved oxygen and temperature measurements and adjusts dissolved oxygen based on solubility of oxygen at different temperatures. Uses USGS methods (citing Garcia and Gordon, 1992) found here: https://water.usgs.gov/admin/memo/QW/qw11.03.pdf

Usage

DO_adjust_units(
  temperature,
  dissolved_oxygen,
  salinity = rep(0, length(temperature))
)

Arguments

temperature	A vector or 1-D column of temperature measurements that coincide with conductivity measurements
dissolved_oxygen	A vector or 1-D column of dissolved measurements that coincide with temperature measurements
salinity	A vector or 1-D column of salinity measurements that coincide with temperature measurements

Value

Dissolved oxygen values converted to percent saturation
