In rKIN: (Kernel) Isotope Niche Estimation

#' rKIN: A package for computating isotopic niche space
#'
#' The rKIN This package applies methods used to estimate animal homerange, but
#' instead of geospatial coordinates, we use isotopic coordinates. The estimation
#' methods include: 1) 2-dimensional bivariate normal kernel utilization density
#' estimator with multiple bandwidth estimation methods, 2) bivariate normal
#' ellipse estimator, and 3) minimum convex polygon estimator, all applied to
#' stable isotope data. Additionally, functions to
#' determine niche area, polygon overlap between groups and levels (confidence
#' contours) and plotting capabilities.
