Dengue Cases and Climate Variables in Colombo Sri Lanka

Weekly notified dengue cases and climate variables in Colombo district Sri Lanka from 2008/ week-52 to 2014/ week-21.

Partitioning Uncertainty Components of an Incomplete Ensemble of Climate Projections

These functions use data augmentation and Bayesian techniques for the assessment of single-member and incomplete ensembles of climate projections. It provides unbiased estimates of climate change responses of all simulation chains and of all uncertainty variables. It additionally propagates uncertainty due to missing information in the estimates. - Evin, G., B. Hingray, J. Blanchet, N. Eckert, S. Morin, and D. Verfaillie. (2019) .

Tests of Homogeneity of Variances

Most common exact, asymptotic and resample based tests are provided for testing the homogeneity of variances of k normal distributions under normality. These tests are Barlett, Bhandary & Dai, Brown & Forsythe, Chang et al., Gokpinar & Gokpinar, Levene, Liu and Xu, Gokpinar. Also, a data generation function from multiple normal distribution is provided using any multiple normal parameters. Bartlett, M. S. (1937) Bhandary, M., & Dai, H. (2008) Brown, M. B., & Forsythe, A. B. (1974). Chang, C. H., Pal, N., & Lin, J. J. (2017) Gokpinar E. & Gokpinar F. (2017) Liu, X., & Xu, X. (2010) Levene, H. (1960) < https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1573950400526848896> Gökpınar, E.

Easy Access to High-Resolution Daily Climate Data for Europe

Get high-resolution (1 km) daily climate data (precipitation, minimum and maximum temperatures) for points and polygons within Europe.

Meteorological Data Manipulation

A set of functions for weather and climate data manipulation, and other helper functions, to support dynamic ecological modeling, particularly crop and crop disease modeling.

Set of Tools to Compute Various Climate Indices

Set of tools to compute metrics and indices for climate analysis. The package provides functions to compute extreme indices, evaluate the agreement between models and combine theses models into an ensemble. Multi-model time series of climate indices can be computed either after averaging the 2-D fields from different models provided they share a common grid or by combining time series computed on the model native grid. Indices can be assigned weights and/or combined to construct new indices. The package makes use of some of the methods described in: N. Manubens et al. (2018) .

Interface to Climatic Research Unit Time-Series Version 3.21 Data

Functions for reading in and manipulating CRU TS3.21: Climatic Research Unit (CRU) Time-Series (TS) Version 3.21 data.

Monthly Climate Data for Germany, Usable for Heating and Cooling Calculations

This data package contains monthly climate data in Germany, it can be used for heating and cooling calculations (external temperature, heating / cooling days, solar radiation).

Species Sensitivity Distributions

Species sensitivity distributions are cumulative probability distributions which are fitted to toxicity concentrations for different species as described by Posthuma et al.(2001) . The ssdtools package uses Maximum Likelihood to fit distributions such as the gamma, log-logistic, log-normal and log-normal log-normal mixture. Multiple distributions can be averaged using Akaike Information Criteria. Confidence intervals on hazard concentrations and proportions are produced by bootstrapping.
