The goal of climateStability is to provide a simple set of
R-based tools to generate climate stability estimates based
on time slices of climate data.
You can install climateStability from github with:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("hannahlowens/climateStability")This is a basic example which shows you how to calculate climate stability using time-slice datasets for two variables:
# First, calculate deviation through time using even time slices
precipDeviation <- deviationThroughTime(variableDirectory = "YOUR_DIRECTORY/precipitationFiles/",
timeSlicePeriod = 1000, fileExtension = "asc");
temperatureDeviation <- deviationThroughTime(variableDirectory = "YOUR_DIRECTORY/temperatureFiles/",
timeSlicePeriod = 1000, fileExtension = "asc");
# Next, calculate stability for each variable (the inverse of deviation, scaled to between 0 and 1)
precipInvDev <- stabilityCalc(precipDeviation);
tempInvDev <- stabilityCalc(temperatureDeviation);
# Finally, multiply them together and rescale to estimate relative climate stability
climateStability <- rescale0to1(precipStability * tempStability)For more information, refer to the vignette.

They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
