State one question

How does temperature change with depth?

Plot data

ggplot(data = oceantemp) +
    geom_point(mapping = aes(x = sensor_depth_at_low_tide_m, y = mean_temperature_degree_c))

Interpret

While this is looks like a bar chart, each bar is made up of many different points which shows that temperature does change with depth
