computeSLABrhogs

For each layer, compute the average density over grain size of all layers above, i.e. <code>&lt;rho/gs&gt;_slab</code>.
This variable has been found to characterize the cohesion of slabs: new snow slabs tend to consist of low density &amp; large grains, and
more cohesive slabs of older snow tend to consist of higher density &amp; smaller grains (Mayer et al, 2022 in review).

Analysis and plotting tools for snow profile data produced from manual snowpack
observations and physical snowpack models. The functions in this package support snowpack
and avalanche research by reading various formats of data (including CAAML, SMET,
generic csv, and outputs from the snow cover model SNOWPACK), manipulate the data, and
produce graphics such as stratigraphy and time series profiles. Package developed by
the Simon Fraser University Avalanche Research Program <http://www.avalancheresearch.ca>.
Graphics apply visualization concepts from Horton, Nowak, and Haegeli (2020,
<doi:10.5194/nhess-20-1557-2020>).
