darleq3: Diatom Assessment of River and Lake Ecological Quality

darleq3 is an R package for the assessment of river and lake ecological status using diatom data obtained by light microscopy (LM) or Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). The package contains functions for importing data from Excel worksheets, calculating various water quality metrics, EQRs and Water Framework Directive quality classes:

• darleq import diatom data from an Excel file, calculate matrics, EQRs and WFD quality classes, and save results in Excel format
• read_DARLEQ import diatom data from an Excel file
• save_DARLEQ save metric and EQR results in an Excel file
• calc_Metric calculate various diatom water quality metrics
• calc_EQR calculate sample and site EQRs and WFD quality classes
• calc_Metric_EQR calculate EQRS, WFD quality classes and summary diagnostic measures for multiple metrics
• runDARLEQ run DARLEQ3 as an interactive shiny app in a web browser
