Helppp figuring out how many stations were allocated to each depth. In the text of the methods, this is "`Assigned sample densities were highest in the 101 to 200 and 201 to 300 m depth intervals at approximately 10-12 stations per 1,000 km^2^ in each interval (Table \@ref(tab:stations-allocated)).`" But that is leftover from the AI report. Will need to update. #60

@MargaretSiple-NOAA Do you know exactly what that quote means. I am having trouble understanding what I should be looking for... lol

MargaretSiple-NOAA commented 9 months ago

Yes ... it's kind of silly. I think you just take the station allocation table (which for these data reports is stored in data/local_goa/goa_station_allocation.csv), join to the GOA_STRATA table to get the depth ranges for each of the strata in that table, and tally up for each depth interval what the number of allocated stations was for that depth interval. Then divide that by the total area in each depth interval (by summing strata). If you get stuck lmk!

Actually, the above isn't even necessary! Sorry! 🤦‍♀️ You can just look at Table 2 in the report (the stations allocated and sampled) and write something about the relative densities in the text. All the numbers needed are already summarized in that table.

Fab! I can do that! I was all excited to do some coding but even more happy that most of that hard work is done. Thanks!!!

MargaretSiple-NOAA commented 9 months ago

If you want some coding projects... there are some fun little things we can do in these! LMK if you really want them. They'll be easier than that centroid rockfish plot thing... haha.

Fixed in most recent set of commits -- I added it to the text.
