Details

The printed output gives the number of total locations in mesa.data and specifies how many of those locations are for observed data. Similarly, the output gives the number of time points in mesa.data and the range of those dates, and specifies how many of those time points are for observed data and the range of the observed time points. The number of total observations are given (over all locations and time points), as well as a summary of the range of dates and number of observations for each monitoring type, if type is specified in mesa.data. If type is specified, the output also summarizes the number of total monitoring types in mesa.data and the subset of which were for observed data.
