[R] Satellite ocean color palette?

[Tim Clark]

Dear List,

Is there a color palette avaliable similar to what is used in satellite ocean color imagery?  I.e. a gradient with blue on one end and red on the other, with yellow in the middle?  I have tried topo.colors(n) but that comes out more yellow on the end.  I am looking for something similar to what is found on the CoastWatch web page:

Thanks!
