#' Body arching vector from brown trout study
#'
#' A list containing the body arching vector obtained using common principal
#' components following the procedure described in Fruciano et al. 2020, and the
#' GPA consensus used to align individual models when the vector was computed.
#' The GPA consensus is provided to align new data using the same consensus),
#'  but using the consensus for downstream work is not recommended.
#'
#' The object is a list with the following elements:
#' \describe{
#'   \item{GPA_consensus_used}{A matrix of landmark coordinates for
#'   the GPA consensus to which the models have been aligned (brown
#'   trout dataset in this package)}
#'   \item{arching_vector_CPCA}{A numeric vector of shape change
#'   obtained using common principal component analysis as detailed in
#'   Fruciano et al. 2020.}
#' }
#'
#' @docType data
#' @usage data(arching_vector)
#' @format A list with two components as described above.
