Examples

# Fetch sealevel data:
gmsl <- get_sealevel()
#
# Plot output using package's built-in ggplot2 defaults
plot_sealevel(gmsl)

# Or just call plot_sealevel(), which defaults to get_sealevel() dataset
plot_sealevel()

p <- plot_sealevel(gmsl, print = FALSE)
# Modify plot such as: p + ggplot2::labs(title='Rising Waters')
