Time series of coverage is now calculated either in area (millions of km^2) or in percentage of ocean points above a user-specified reference latitude. There is an added option in 'options.ini' so that the user can select if they want to plot the time series in percentage or area, and which reference latitude to use (lower than 50N will default to taking all available data and no percentage is calculated, only the total area).
The map bins and map limits for computing the coverage (both the map and the time series) have also been modified to always remain the same, regardless of where the data is located (previously, the map boundary was changing with the min/max lat/lon of data points included in the map and the bins were not the same size between different plots).
