  <dc:title>Functional Trait Moment Calculation</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package tidyttmoment version 0.0.5</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Calculates the community four 'moments' (mean, variance, skewness,
    and kurtosis) of a given trait based on the moments described in Wieczynski 
    et al. (2019) &lt;doi:10.1073/pnas.1813723116&gt;. These functional metrics are 
    extremely useful in characterizing the distribution of traits in a plant 
    community. It also provides tidyverse-friendly wrappers to seamlessly calculate
    advanced functional diversity indices (e.g., FDis, Rao's Q) using 'fundiversity' 
    (Grenie et al. 2023 &lt;doi:10.1111/ecog.06585&gt;) and functional rarity indices 
    using 'funrar' (Grenie et al. 2017 &lt;doi:10.1111/ddi.12629&gt;). Evaluating these 
    community-weighted moments and diversity metrics allows researchers to evaluate
    shifts in optimal phenotypes and understand ecological filtering with exactness.</dc:description>
