GREENeR: Geospatial Regression Equation for European Nutrient Losses

Description

The package provides tools and methods to apply the model Geospatial Regression Equation for European Nutrient losses (GREEN; Grizzetti et al. (2005); Grizzetti et al. (2012); Grizzetti et al. (2021)) to an area of interest in R environment. The package comprises functions for assessing annual nutrient (nitrogen and phosphorus) loads from a basin or region of interest, land and river retention, and contribution shares by sources. A brief description of the model, including sources and parameters, can be found at the end of this document. Further, the package includes functions for loading spatio-temporal data , calibrating basin parameters, performing an advanced sensitivity analysis to evaluate the calibration results, and visualizing model inputs and outputs through plots and maps. The package is parallel-capable to alleviate the computational burden in large basins.
