#' \itemize{
#' \item character, a country name (e.g., "Vanuatu")
#' \item character, a basin name among "NA", "SA", "EP", "WP", "SP", "SI" and "NI"
#' \item numeric vector, a point coordinate (lon, lat in decimal degrees, e.g., c(169.5, -19.2))
#' \item sp (SpatialPolygon) or a sf (simple features) object (e.g., created from a shapefile)
#' }
#' @param seasons numeric vector. Seasons of occurrence of the storms (e.g., c(2020,2022)).
#' In the Southern Hemisphere, the cyclone season extends across two consecutive years.
#' Therefore, to capture the 2021 to 2022 cyclone season both years should be specified,

#' @param names character vector. Names of specific storms (in capital letters).

#' @param scale numeric. List of storm scale thresholds used for the database.
#' Default value is set to the Saffir Simpson Hurricane Scale
#' @param scalePalette character. Named vector containing the color hex code
#' corresponding to each category interval of `scale` input
#' @param removeUnder numeric. Storms reaching this maximum level or less in the scale are removed.
#' Default value is set to NULL.
#' @param removeUnnamed character vector. Remove unnamed storms. Need to specify how they are named in the stormsDataset
#' (e.g "UNNAMED", "NOT_NAMED", etc...)
#' Default value is set to NULL (do not remove any unnamed storm).
#' @param verbose numeric. Type of information the function displays. Can be:
#' \itemize{
#' \item `2`, information about both the processes and the outputs are displayed (default value),
#' \item `1`, only information about the processes are displayed, or
#' \item `0`, nothing is displayed.
#' }
#'
#' @returns The `defStormsList()` function returns a `stormsList` object containing track data for all storms
#' meeting the specified criteria (e.g., name, season, location).
#'
#' @details The available countries for the `loi` are those provided in the

#' Creating a `stormsList` object
#'
#' The `defStormsList()` function extracts storm track data from a `stormsDataset`
#' and creates a `stormsList` object based on specified arguments relating to location of interest,
#' seasons, and names of the storms.
#'
#' @param sds `stormsDataset` object.
#' @param loi Location of interest. Can be defined using,
#' \itemize{
#' \item character, a country name (e.g., "Vanuatu")
#' \item character, a basin name among "NA", "SA", "EP", "WP", "SP", "SI" and "NI"
#' \item numeric vector, a point coordinate (lon, lat in decimal degrees, e.g., c(169.5, -19.2))
#' \item sp (SpatialPolygon) or a sf (simple features) object (e.g., created from a shapefile)
#' }
#' @param seasons numeric vector. Seasons of occurrence of the storms (e.g., c(2020,2022)).
#' In the Southern Hemisphere, the cyclone season extends across two consecutive years.
#' Therefore, to capture the 2021 to 2022 cyclone season both years should be specified,
#' with cyclones assigned for the year that originated in. By default all storms from `sds` are extracted.
#' @param names character vector. Names of specific storms (in capital letters).
#' @param maxDist numeric. Maximum distance between the location of interest and the
#' storm for which track data are extracted. Default `maxDist` is set to 300 km.
#' @param scale numeric. List of storm scale thresholds used for the database.
#' Default value is set to the Saffir Simpson Hurricane Scale
#' @param scalePalette character. Named vector containing the color hex code
#' corresponding to each category interval of `scale` input
#' @param removeUnder numeric. Storms reaching this maximum level or less in the scale are removed.
#' Default value is set to NULL.
#' @param removeUnnamed character vector. Remove unnamed storms. Need to specify how they are named in the stormsDataset
#' (e.g "UNNAMED", "NOT_NAMED", etc...)
#' Default value is set to NULL (do not remove any unnamed storm).
#' @param verbose numeric. Type of information the function displays. Can be:
#' \itemize{
#' \item `2`, information about both the processes and the outputs are displayed (default value),
#' \item `1`, only information about the processes are displayed, or
#' \item `0`, nothing is displayed.
#' }
#'
#' @returns The `defStormsList()` function returns a `stormsList` object containing track data for all storms
#' meeting the specified criteria (e.g., name, season, location).
#'
#' @details The available countries for the `loi` are those provided in the
#' `rwolrdxtra` package. This package provide high resolution vector country
#' boundaries derived from Natural Earth data. More informations on the Natural Earth data
#' here: [http://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/10m-cultural-vectors/](https://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/10m-cultural-vectors/).
