codyn 1.0.0

codyn: Community Dynamics Metrics

• Version 1.0.0

NEW FEATURES

• Initial version (see help topic for 'codyn', e.g. "?codyn")
• Includes functions for temporal community dynamics analysis

NEW FUNCTIONS

• turnover: Calculates species turnover between time periods
• mean_rank_shift: Calculates the mean relative change in species rank abundances
• rate_change: Calculates the rate change in a community over time
• rate_change_interval: Produces a data frame containing differences in species composition between samples at increasing time intervals
• community_stability: Calculates community stability over time
• variance_ratio: Computes the ratio of the variance of aggregate species abundances in a community
• synchrony: Calculates the degree synchrony in species abundances
• temporal_torus_translation: Calculates a null test statistic using a temporal modification of the torus translation
• temporal_torus_translation_CI: Returns confidence intervals calculated from a temporal modification of the torus translation
