timescale-package | R Documentation |
The package provides tools to compute the time elapsed in a different scaling of time.
The package was develop to compute development time of ectotherms in function of temperature, but has been built to accept any other time scaling.
It is particularly useful for non-linear thermal response of development and allows interpolation of temperature.
The principal functions of the package are timeScale
and timeShift
, no other function require to be explicitly called.
The function timeScale
evaluate the time elapsed between two bounds (x1
, x2
) into a scaled domain, or perform the back-transformation.
The function timeShift
estimate the time x2
that would correspond to a specified period elapsed in the scaled domain, given a reference time x1
.
The package can be installed from github by entering the following command lines in R:
devtools::install_github("aleblancbio/timescale", build_vignettes = TRUE)
.
An overview of the package can be accessed through: browseVignettes('timescale')
.
To get information on a specific function, one can use ? or the help() function in R.
