Provides functionality to interact with the 
  'FieldClimate' API <https://api.fieldclimate.com/v2/docs/>.

A file set refers to a set of files located in one or more directories on the file system.  This package provides classes and methods to locate, setup, subset, navigate and iterate such sets.  The API is designed such that these classes can be extended via inheritance to provide a richer API for special file formats.  Moreover, a specific name format is defined such that filenames and directories can be considered to have full names which consists of a name followed by comma-separated tags.  This adds additional flexibility to identify file sets and individual files.  NOTE: This package's API should be considered to be in an beta stage.  Its main purpose is currently to support the aroma.* packages, where it is one of the main core components; if you decide to build on top of this package, please contact the author first.

An integrated package for constructing random forest prediction intervals using a fast implementation package 'ranger'. This package can apply the following three methods described in Haozhe Zhang, Joshua Zimmerman, Dan Nettleton, and Daniel J. Nordman (2019) <doi:10.1080/00031305.2019.1585288>: the out-of-bag prediction interval, the split conformal method, and the quantile regression forest.

A programmatic interface to 'FishBase', re-written
    based on an accompanying 'RESTful' API. Access tables describing over 30,000
    species of fish, their biology, ecology, morphology, and more. This package also
    supports experimental access to 'SeaLifeBase' data, which contains
    nearly 200,000 species records for all types of aquatic life not covered by
    'FishBase.'

Helps fisheries scientists collect measurements from calcified
    structures and back-calculate estimated lengths at previous ages using
    standard procedures and models. This is intended to replace much of the
    functionality provided by the now out-dated 'fishBC' software
    (<https://fisheries.org/bookstore/all-titles/software/70317/>).
