fingerPro: A Comprehensive Package for Sediment Source Unmixing

"This package quantifies the provenance of sediments in a catchment or study area. Based on a characterization of the sediment sources and the end sediment mixtures, a mixing model algorithm is applied to the sediment mixtures to estimate the relative contribution of each potential source. The package includes several graphs to help users in their data understanding, such as box plots, correlation, PCA, and LDA graphs. In addition, new developments such as the Consensus Ranking (CR), Consistent Tracer Selection (CTS), and Linear Variability Propagation (LVP) methods are included to correctly apply the fingerprinting technique and increase dataset and model understanding. A new method based on Conservative Balance (CB) method has also been included to enable the use of isotopic tracers."
