seasonality

This is the development area for the package seasonality, which provides a set of functions to split year-round space-use measurements into biological seasons, completed with additional functions to explore and simplify these seasons. Reference: Basille M., Fortin D., Dussault C., Ouellet J.-P., Courtois R. Ecologically based definition of seasons clarifies predator-prey interactions. Ecography, early view. DOI: 10.1111/j.1600-0587.2011.07367.x.

See the home page for the released versions.

Installation of the development version

You need to use the package devtools from Hadley Wickham:

library(devtools)
install_github("basille/seasonality")

Installation of the released versions

Binaries for Windows are (sometimes) maintained for the latest R release, and can be installed with the command:

install.packages("seasonality", repos = "http://ase-research.org/R/")

If it's not the case, and with other operating systems (such as GNU/Linux or OS X), you can compile the source package with the command:

install.packages("seasonality", repos = "http://ase-research.org/R/", type = "source")

The upgrade process (e.g. using update.packages()) is not operative on packages from this repository. Simply reinstall the package with one of the commands above to upgrade it when necessary.
