attribute	NC_GLOBAL	history	String	Version 1 (2013-05-10): Initial version. Version 2 (2014-03-01): Switched from four seasonal models to two. 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 (2013-06-02): Added Reclassification of Ambiguous Sightings section, which was accidentally omitted. Density models unchanged. Version 5 (2014-09-02): Added surveys: NJ-DEP, Virginia Aquarium, NARWSS 2013, UNCW 2013. Extended study area up Scotian Shelf. Added SEAPODYM predictors. Switched to mgcv estimation of Tweedie p parameter (family=tw()). Version 6 (2014-10-18): Switched to a single season model. Added Palka (2006) survey-specific g(0) estimates. Updated distance to eddy predictors using Chelton et al.'s 2014 database. Removed distance to eddy and wind speed predictors. Fixed missing pixels in several climatological predictors, which led to not all segments being utilized. Eliminated Cape Cod Bay subregion. Version 7 (2014-11-03): Fixed error in g(0) for NEFSC Abel-J Binocular Surveys: previously used 0.87; changed to correct value, 0.32, and refitted the model. Updated documentation. Version 8 (2014-11-10): Reconfigured detection hierarchy and adjusted NARWSS detection functions based on additional information from Tim Cole. Removed CumVGPM180 predictor. Updated documentation. Version 9 (2014-12-03): Fixed bug that applied the wrong detection function to segments NE_narwss_1999_widgeon_hapo dataset. Refitted model. Updated documentation. Version 9.1 (2015-02-02): Updated the documentation. No changes to the model. Version 9.2 (2015-05-14): Updated calculation of CVs. Switched density rasters to logarithmic breaks. No changes to the model. Version 9.3 (2015-09-26): Updated the documentation. No changes to the model. Version 9.4 (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 9.2 but I did not implement it properly.) No changes to the other rasters or the model itself. Model files released as supplementary information to Roberts et al. (2016). Version 10 (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. Model released as part of a scheduled update to the U.S. Navy Marine Species Density Database (NMSDD). Version 11 (2018-04-22): Discovered that model verison 10 erroneously excluded ambiguous "fin or sei whale" sightings classified as fin whales. Refitted the model with them included. The functional form of the resulting model was essentially the same but deviance explained rose from 36% to 40%. Predicted density showed a similar spatiotemporal pattern but total abundance rose about 15%, reflecting the addtional sightings introduced into the model. Model released as part of a scheduled update to the U.S. Navy Marine Species Density Database (NMSDD). Version 12 (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 12.1 (2023-05-27): Completed the supplementary report documenting the details of this model. The model itself was not 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. Data conversion to CF-NetCDF from raster files was performed by james.caplinger@NOAA.gov

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 fin whale.

attribute	density	description	String	The estimated mean density per grid cell for the given month, averaged over all years the model was predicted. Density is expressed as the number of individual animals per 100 square km. To convert to individuals per 1 square km, divide the cell values by 100. To convert to individuals per grid cell, divide by 100 and multiply by 25, the cell area in km.

attribute	standard_error	description	String	estimated standard error of the density estimates. These have the same unit as the density rasters. This and the other uncertainty statistics below incorporated variance resulting from uncertainty in the models parameter estimates as well as variance resulting from temporal variations in dynamic covariates. The temporal variability incorporated depended on the covariates used. For models that utilized contemporaneous dynamic covariates, the variability included both seasonal and interannual variability. For models that utilized climatological dynamic covariates, it included seasonal variability only. For technical information on the method used to estimate uncertainty, please see Roberts et al. (2021).
