Tools for Analyzing Climate Extremes
Functions for fitting GEV and POT (via point process fitting)
models for extremes in climate data, providing return values, return
probabilities, and return periods for stationary and nonstationary models.
Also provides differences in return values and differences in log return
probabilities for contrasts of covariate values. Functions for estimating risk
ratios for event attribution analyses, including uncertainty. Under the hood,
many of the functions use functions from 'extRemes', including for fitting the
statistical models. Details are given in Paciorek, Stone, and Wehner (2018)
Access Data from the Oregon State Prism Climate Project
Allows users to access the Oregon State Prism climate data (< https://prism.nacse.org/>). Using the web service API data can easily downloaded in bulk and loaded into R for spatial analysis. Some user friendly visualizations are also provided.
Detection and Attribution Analysis of Climate Change
Conduct detection and attribution of climate change using methods including optimal fingerprinting via
generalized total least squares or estimating equation approach from Ma et al. (2023)
A Set of Common Tools for Seasonal to Decadal Verification
The advanced version of package 's2dverification'. It is intended for 'seasonal to decadal' (s2d) climate forecast verification, but it can also be used in other kinds of forecasts or general climate analysis. This package is specially designed for the comparison between the experimental and observational datasets. The functionality of the included functions covers from data retrieval, data post-processing, skill scores against observation, to visualization. Compared to 's2dverification', 's2dv' is more compatible with the package 'startR', able to use multiple cores for computation and handle multi-dimensional arrays with a higher flexibility. The CDO version used in development is 1.9.8.
Climate Water Balance for Irrigation Purposes
Calculates daily climate water balance for irrigation purposes and
also calculates the reference evapotranspiration (ET) using three methods,

Download Colombian Demographic, Climate and Geospatial Data
Downloads wrangled Colombian socioeconomic, geospatial,population and climate data from DANE < https://www.dane.gov.co/> (National Administrative Department of Statistics) and IDEAM (Institute of Hydrology, Meteorology and Environmental Studies). It solves the problem of Colombian data being issued in different web pages and sources by using functions that allow the user to select the desired database and download it without having to do the exhausting acquisition process.
Tools to Visualize CM SAF NetCDF Data
The Satellite Application Facility on Climate Monitoring (CM SAF) is a ground segment of the European Organization for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT) and one of EUMETSATs Satellite Application Facilities. The CM SAF contributes to the sustainable monitoring of the climate system by providing essential climate variables related to the energy and water cycle of the atmosphere (< https://www.cmsaf.eu>). It is a joint cooperation of eight National Meteorological and Hydrological Services. The 'cmsafvis' R-package provides a collection of R-operators for the analysis and visualization of CM SAF NetCDF data. CM SAF climate data records are provided for free via (< https://wui.cmsaf.eu/safira>). Detailed information and test data are provided on the CM SAF webpage (< http://www.cmsaf.eu/R_toolbox>).
C3S Quality Control Tools for Historical Climate Data
Quality control and formatting tools developed for the Copernicus Data Rescue Service. The package includes functions to handle the Station Exchange Format (SEF), various statistical tests for climate data at daily and sub-daily resolution, as well as functions to plot the data. For more information and documentation see < https://datarescue.climate.copernicus.eu/st_data-quality-control>.
Download and Visualize Essential Climate Change Data
Provides easy access to essential climate change datasets to non-climate experts. Users can download the latest raw data from authoritative sources and view it via pre-defined 'ggplot2' charts. Datasets include atmospheric CO2, methane, emissions, instrumental and proxy temperature records, sea levels, Arctic/Antarctic sea-ice, Hurricanes, and Paleoclimate data. Sources include: NOAA Mauna Loa Laboratory < https://gml.noaa.gov/ccgg/trends/data.html>, Global Carbon Project < https://www.globalcarbonproject.org/carbonbudget/>, NASA GISTEMP < https://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/>, National Snow and Sea Ice Data Center < https://nsidc.org/home>, CSIRO < https://research.csiro.au/slrwavescoast/sea-level/measurements-and-data/sea-level-data/>, NOAA Laboratory for Satellite Altimetry < https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/socd/lsa/SeaLevelRise/> and HURDAT Atlantic Hurricane Database < https://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/hurdat/Data_Storm.html>, Vostok Paleo carbon dioxide and temperature data:
Download, Extract and Visualise Climate and Elevation Data
Grants access to three widely recognised modelled data sets, namely Global Climate Data (WorldClim 2), Climatologies at high resolution for the earth's land surface areas (CHELSA), and National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM). It handles both multi and single geospatial polygon and point data, extracts outputs that can serve as covariates in various ecological studies. Provides two common graphic options – the Walter-Lieth (1960) < https://donum.uliege.be/bitstream/2268.1/7079/1/Walter-Lieth_Klimadiagramm-Weltatlas.pdf> climate diagram and the Holdridge (1967) < https://reddcr.go.cr/sites/default/files/centro-de-documentacion/holdridge_1966_-_life_zone_ecology.pdf> life zone classification scheme. Provides one new graphic scheme of our own design which incorporates aspects of both Walter-Leigh and Holdridge. Provides user-friendly access and extraction of globally recognisable data sets to enhance their usability across a broad spectrum of applications.
