As currently written, when fitting the dynamic range model to real population data over space and time, we also pass the model a matrix of temperature values (patches x years). I'll start out just using a mean of in situ bottom temperature readings from the trawls in each patch in each year (including all hauls, not just those where the focal species was found), but other suggestions are welcome.
