WMS Duke University Marine Geospatial Ecology Laboratory In 2016, together with our collaborators, we published density models for 26 cetacean species and 3 guilds inhabiting U.S. waters of the western North Atlantic and northern Gulf of Mexico (Roberts et al. 2016). After publication, we began an update to the Atlantic (a.k.a. "East Coast") models that utilized the same methodology but incorporated additional survey data not available for use in models published in 2016. During 2017-2021, we released updated models for many of the East Coast taxa as additional data accumulated and new collaborators joined the project. Finally, in 2022, we released a comprehensive set of updated models covering all taxa. This model contains the 2022 update for sei whale.

Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Version 1 (2013-05-08): Initial version with climatological predictor variables. Version 2 (2014-03-01): Reformulated density model using a Horvitz-Thompson estimator. Eliminated GAM for group size (consequence of above). Added group size as a candidate covariate in detection functions (benefit of above). Added survey ID as a candidate covariate in NOAA NARWSS detection functions. Took more care in selecting right-truncation distances. Fitted models with contemporaneous predictors, for comparison to climatological. Switched SST and SST fronts predictors from NOAA Pathfinder to GHRSST CMC0.2deg L4. Changed SST fronts algorithm to use Canny operator instead of Cayula-Cornillon. Switched winds predictors from SCOW to CCMP (SCOW only gives climatol. estimates.) Added DistToEddy predictors, based on Chelton et al. (2011) eddy database. Added cumulative VGPM predictors, summing productivity for 45, 90, and 180 days. Added North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) predictor; included 3 and 6 month lags. Transformed predictors more carefully, to better minimize leverage of outliers. Implemented hybrid hierarchical-forward / exhaustive model selection procedure. Model selection procedure better avoids concurvity between predictors. Allowed GAMs to select between multiple formulations of dynamic predictors. Adjusted land mask to eliminate additional estuaries and hard-to-predict cells. Version 3 (2014-05-20): Fixed bug in temporal variability plots. Density models unchanged. Version 4 (2014-06-02): Added Reclassification of Ambiguous Sightings section, which was accidentally omitted. Density models unchanged. Version 5 (2015-01-17): TODO: Describe changes. Version 6 (2015-01-18): Switched back to a four season model, using seasons from version 4. Version 6.1 (2015-01-19): Restricted Fall season model to the surveyed area of the northeast. Version 6.2 (2015-03-06): Updated the documentation. No changes to the model. Version 6.3 (2015-05-14): Updated calculation of CVs. Switched density rasters to logarithmic breaks. No changes to the model. Version 6.4 (2015-09-28): Updated the documentation. No changes to the model. Version 6.5 (2016-04-21): Switched calculation of monthly 5% and 95% confidence interval rasters to the method used to produce the year-round rasters. (We intended this to happen in version 6.3 but I did not implement it properly.) Updated the monthly CV rasters to have value 0 where we assumed the species was absent, consistent with the year-round CV raster. No changes to the other (non-zero) CV values, the mean abundance rasters, or the model itself. Model files released as supplementary information to Roberts et al. (2016). Version 7 (2017-06-01): Began update to Roberts et al. (2015) model. Introduced new surveys from AMAPPS, NARWSS, UNCW, VAMSC, and the SEUS NARW teams. Updated modeling methodology. Refitted detection functions and spatial models from scratch using new and reprocessed covariates. Switched to two-season spatial model. This version of the model was released to the Navy and federal agencies in fall of 2017. Model released as part of a scheduled update to the U.S. Navy Marine Species Density Database (NMSDD). Version 8 (2018-04-22): Discovered that model verison 7 erroneously excluded ambiguous "fin or sei whale" sightings classified as sei whales. Refitted the models with them included. The resulting models and spatial predictions were very similar. Total summer abundance rose only 1% but CV dropped from 0.098 to 0.091. Model released as part of a scheduled update to the U.S. Navy Marine Species Density Database (NMSDD). Version 9 (2022-02-10): Unreleased experimental model. Version 10 (2022-06-20): This model is a major update over the prior version, with substantial additional data, improved statistical methods, and an increased spatial resolution. It was released as part of the final delivery of the U.S. Navy Marine Species Density Database (NMSDD) for the Atlantic Fleet Testing and Training (AFTT) Phase IV Environmental Impact Statement. Several new collaborators joined and contributed survey data: New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, TetraTech, HDR, and Marine Conservation Research. We incorporated additional surveys from all continuing and new collaborators through the end of 2020. (Because some environmental covariates were only available through 2019, certain models only extend through 2019.) We increased the spatial resolution to 5 km and, at NOAA's request, we extended the model further inshore from New York through Maine. We reformulated and refitted all detection functions and spatial models. We updated all enviromental covariates to newer products, when available, and added several covariates to the set of candidates. For models that incorporated dynamic covariates, we estimated model uncertainty using a new method that accounts for both model parameter error and temporal variability. Version 10.1 (2023-05-27): Completed the supplementary report documenting the details of this model. Corrected the 5 and 95 percent rasters so that they contain the value 0 where the taxon was asssumed absent, rather than NoData. Nothing else was changed. NETCDF conversion:Raw data provided at https://seamap.env.duke.edu/models/Duke/EC/ were converted from raster images having an Anderson equal area projection into python xarray objects and reprojected to WGS-1984. See crs attribute for more details regarding the geographic project. Multiple raster files for monthly density estimates where merged into a single .nc file having time dimension and month coordinate. For datasets with multiple eras, only the most recent era is represented here.
