There are several high-quality ocean and/or climate related Matlab toolboxes such as Climate Data Toolbox for Matlab [@Greene:2019], those part of SEA-MAT: Matlab Tools for Oceanographic Analysis (https://sea-mat.github.io/sea-mat/), and Gibbs-SeaWater (GSW) Oceanographic Toolbox [@McDougall:2011]. However, there are no other documented and designed-to-be-shared toolboxes filling the same data exploration niche as this one. ``ocean_data_tools`` is unique in encouraging the user to invoke a variety of freely-available data into their exploration and does not expect the user to provide privately-collected measurements or privately-generated model output. It connects users to specific, well-documented data sources Table \ref{table:1}.
