colnames(scale_age)
#> [1] "brood_year" "captures"   "age"

Viewing the first few rows of ‘scale_age’ data:

head(scale_age)
#>   brood_year captures age
#> 1       1992       NA   2
#> 2       1993       NA   2
#> 3       1996        9   2

#> 5       1998       NA   2
#> 6       1999       NA   2

Viewing the first few rows of a subset from ‘salmonids’ data (only viewing several of the many columns/variables):

  "START_DATE",
  "END_DATE",
