coldpool - v3.2-1: Finalized 2023 EBS and NBS data
This package update to version 3.2-1 includes finalized 2023 northern Bering Sea (EBS) data and data products. Finalized 2023 eastern Bering Sea (EBS) shelf data products were provided in the prior update (coldpool version 3.1-1).
Update: - Finalized bottom and surface temperature data from the 2023 NBS bottom trawl survey (ebsnbstemperaturefullarea.csv). - Finalized 2023 data products for the NBS and combined EBS+NBS (built-in data sets). - New figures showing 2023 data products for the NBS and combined EBS+NBS (plots directory).

coldpool - v3.1-1
BUG FIX
Modified interpolate_variable to accept sf objects as an argument to select.region. Enables production of temperature products with a user-defined extent and matches functionality from prior to the switch from rgdal/raster/sp to terra/sf.

coldpool - v3.0-1: Preliminary 2023 update
Preliminary update for 2023 that includes:
- 2023 EBS temperature products.
- Provisional NBS bottom temperature (no NBS surface temperature).
- New annual bottom temperature plots to /plots/annual_bt.
- Replacement of old raster package functionality with functions from the terra package.
The package and data products will be updated again once NBS data are finalized (by the end of September 2023).

coldpool - 2.2: Interpolate to a raster stack
Added new functions provided by @kakearney to facilitate comparison between coldpool data products and Bering10K output.
New functions: - data2raster(): interpolates and mask variable to a raster stack using a user-specified interpolation method. - calcindiciestemp(): Calculates temperature indices from a .csv file. - parseregion(): Handles CRS transformation (w/ sf::sttransform) or retrieval of bottom trawl survey shapefiles (w/ akgfmaps::getbaselayers).

coldpool - 1.4
Added deprecated historical data sets to built in data: - Stratum-area weighted mean bottom and surface temperatures for EBS shelf standard and standard+PlusNW - Stratum-area weighted mean bottom and surface temperatures for the NBS - Mean bottom and surface temperatures from EBS hauls conducted at bottom depths < 100 m.

coldpool - 1.3
Added mean bottom temperature for EBS shelf standard strata with bottom temperature < 100m, which is obtained by masking bottom temperature rasters.

The data product time series is included in /R/sysdata.rda and can be accessed using:
coldpool::cold_pool_index$MEAN_BT_LT100M.
This data product replaces the mean bottom temperature < 100 m data set described in Nichol et al. (2019), which was calculated by averaging bottom temperature from all <100 m bottom depth survey stations in standard strata (i.e., excluding northwest strata).
