+# Title: Copepod Biomass Time Series
+# Purpose: This script generates a time series of large and small copepod biomass to be
+#           used for fitting the 1980-85 Gulf of Maine Rpath model to data.
+#         
+# Data files: (1) data/ZooData_GOM.csv, (2) data/EcoMon_Copepod size.csv from Harvey Walsh
+#            (1) Ecomon data filtered for region, taxa of interest
+#            (2) Parameters for converting abundance to biomass for taxa of interest
