voluModel:Modeling Species Distributions in Three Dimensions
Facilitates modeling species' ecological niches and geographic distributions based on occurrences and environments
that have a vertical as well as horizontal component, and
projecting models into three-dimensional geographic space.
Working in three dimensions is useful in an aquatic context
when the organisms one wishes to model can be found across a
wide range of depths in the water column. The package also
contains functions to automatically generate marine training
model training regions using machine learning, and interpolate
and smooth patchily sampled environmental rasters using thin
plate splines. Davis Rabosky AR, Cox CL, Rabosky DL, Title PO,
