-
-1. 2000 years ago, the system was dominated by Paracyprideis, Cassidulina and Elphidium species.
-2. The first 1000 years demonstrated relative stability
-3. Then, from 1000-1300, agglutinated species Spiroplectammina became more abundant as a result of the climate instability during the Medieval Climate Anomaly
-4. During the Little Ice Age, Paracyprideis declined to its lowest levels in the record
-5. In the modern record, Spiroplectammina and Kotoracythere are at all-time highs, and the previously dominant Elphidium and Cassidulina are sparser

-Overall method to create this viz:
-
-1. Create an RStudio project in the `beaufortSea` folder
-2. Download data sources and store them in the `beaufortSea/in` folder
-3. Run `targets::tar_make()` to create the visualization
+This R pipeline processes the data for the Beaufort Sea Species and Beaufort Sea Timeline visualizations for the Beaufort Sea project. It also generates the charts for the Beaufort Sea Species visualization. The pipeline can be run in R with `targets::tar_make()`
