Version 3.2 - 2015-05-14 (unreleased)
Updated calculation of CVs. Switched density rasters to logarithmic breaks. No changes to the model.

Version 3 - 2015-01-10 (unreleased)
Added a missing sighting and refitted detection functions and models.

Version 2 - 2014-10-24 (unreleased)
Updated distance to eddy predictors using Chelton et al.'s 2014 database. Removed distance to canyon and wind speed predictors; they were not ecologically justified. Fixed missing pixels in several climatological predictors, which led to not all segments being utilized.
