Examples

# \donttest{
# Fetch sea ice data:
seaice <- get_seaice()
#> Please set use_cache=FALSE if you are changing pole, month, or measure from last cached data.
#
# Plot output using package's built-in ggplot2 defaults
plot_seaice(seaice)


# Or just call plot_seaice(), which defaults to get_seaice() dataset
plot_seaice()
#> Please set use_cache=FALSE if you are changing pole, month, or measure from last cached data.


p <- plot_seaice(seaice, print = FALSE)
# Modify plot such as: p + ggplot2::labs(title='Shrinking Arctic Sea Ice') # }
