Hi @heather-earle - Just wanted to let you know that I've assigned myself to review your Sentinels of Change SST metadata record. Should I have any questions I'll let you know!

[timvdstap]

Things for consideration (as I'm going along - will edit as I progress):

• [ ] I added Hakai Institute as Publisher and Distributor. Will only appear in the citation as Publisher.
• [ ] I changed the order of authors to be the same as for the larval dungeness size/abundance data record - can you confirm your recommended citation: Whalen, M., & Earle, H. (2022). Sea surface temperature data in the Salish Sea. Hakai Institute. DOI
• [ ] Consider including data package recommendations listed here in the GitHub repository - e.g. data dictionary, changelog.

I just added a link to the future production ERDDAP dataset which is for now available within our development erddap https://goose.hakai.org/erddap/tabledap/HakaiSentinelTempRaw.html

@heather-earle I'm just 'reviving' this issue as we discussed finalizing the draft for metadata record on the Sentinels of Change SST data last week. Given that it's likely been a while since you, and us, looked at this draft (and there have been some changes since), I would suggest to review the contents when you have time and let us know when you'd like us to review (again).
