Update for ebirdst 2022

[ethanplunkett]

11/15/2023 ebirdst c 3.2022.0 was released on CRAN.

Changes that impact BirdFlowR

• The example species name is now "yebsap-example". It was "example_data".
• abundance_palette() renamed ebirdst_palettes()
• Species "grerhe1" no longer exists (used in testing preprocess_species())
• Column changes in ebirdst_runs:
  • Dropped all "[x]_range_modeled" columns. Where [x] is one of "breeding", "nonbreeding", "prebreeding", "postbreeding" There may be an assessment of seasonal quality. [x]_quality
  • "resident" column is renamed to "is_resident"
  • New columns: "has_trends", "trends_season", "trends_region", "trends_start_year", "trends_end_year", "trends_start_date", "trends_end_date", "rsquared", "beta0"
• About half as many models. They have not to refit all species models for the 2022 release and instead will update models for a portion of the species each year. However, currently you have a choice between using the older version of the ebirdst package and accessing 2021 models; or the new version which gives you access to 2022 models - but for roughly half the species.
• Dropped ebirdst_weeks data. BirdFlowR uses this to populate $dates
• Changed how the weeks are delineated.
  • For 2022 release year:
  • Intervals are defined based on the Julian Date of their midpoint using jd <- seq(4, 366, 7)
  • These Julian date midpoints are used for leap years without any adjustment. This means that in a non-leap-year the last interval of the year has 8 days and in a leap year the last interval of the year has 9 days. All other intervals have 7 days.
  • Week labels are based on the month and day associated with each Julian date on a non-leap-year plus the year, regardless of whether it's a leap year or not. This means that on leap years the nominal date used to label the interval is one day off the center of the interval.
  • In the 2021 package
  • The interval was determined by adding 0.5 to the Julian date and dividing by 366. With this method every year the 14th and 40th weeks have 8 days, and when it's not a leap year the last week has 6 days.
