The lunar Package
Description
Lunar Phase & Distance, Seasons and Other Environmental Factors.
Provides functions to calculate the phase of the moon,
its distance from the earth, the season and possibly
other environmental factors, based on date and location.

Provides functions to calculate lunar and other environmental covariates.
This package is used by the author to calculate covariates
for studies of lunar effect on health and healthcare.
It is based on an astronomical calculation that considers
the moon's phase and its distance from the earth to calculate
theoretical relative amount of moonlight on any given night.
The package is not based on luminance data.
It does not consider local cloud cover, for example, so it
only provides maximum possible moonlight, not actual moonlight.
References forthcoming.
