Plot seasonal SST vs. MMM with bleaching status

plot_sst_year.Rd

Produce a seasonal plot (Nov of targetyear-1 to Jul of targetyear) showing SST relative to the site MMM and MMM+1 degrees C threshold, with a bottom bar indicating NOAA-style bleaching alert status derived from hotspots and dhw.

Usage

plot_sst_year(input, targetyear)

Arguments

input

A list containing at least these terra::SpatRaster elements:

  • sst – daily sea-surface temperature (with time dimension)

  • mmm – maximum monthly mean (single-layer raster or single cell)

  • hotspots – daily hotspots (same time as sst)

  • dhw – daily Degree Heating Weeks (same time as sst)

Typically this is the output from your climatology pipeline.

targetyear

Integer target year for the season window (plots Nov of targetyear-1 through Jul of targetyear).

Value

A ggplot2 object.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
p <- plot_year(ningaloo_climatology, targetyear = 2025)
print(p)
} # }
