phenesse: Estimate Phenological Metrics using Presence-Only Data

Generates Weibull-parameterized estimates of phenology for any percentile of a distribution using the framework established in Cooke (1979) <doi:10.1093/biomet/66.2.367>. Extensive testing against other estimators suggest the weib_percentile() function is especially useful in generating more accurate and less biased estimates of onset and offset (Belitz et al. 2020) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13448>. Non-parametric bootstrapping can be used to generate confidence intervals around those estimates, although this is computationally expensive. Additionally, this package offers an easy way to perform non-parametric bootstrapping to generate confidence intervals for quantile estimates, mean estimates, or any statistical function of interest.
