sharpshootR 2.3.2 (2024-10-22)

• rebuild OSDexamples with modern SoilProfileCollection object
• CRAN release

sharpshootR 2.3.1 (2024-05-29)

• moving vegan to SUGGESTS
• CRAN release

sharpshootR 2.3 (2024-04-08)

• CRAN release
• prepare_SSURGO_hydro_data() now returns more soil property data
• major updates to monthlyWB():
  • mass balance check, reporting, and messages when not closed
  • new arguments which enable / modify the distribution of PPT and PET within k-bins / month
• bug fix in plotWB()
• minor updates to prepare_SSURGO_hydro_data()

sharpshootR 2.2 (2023-08-24)

• CRAN release
• added a few more soil hydraulic properties to prepare_SSURGO_hydro_data()
• plotGeomorphCrossSection() now respects aqp::plotSPC() arguments via options(.aqp.plotSPC.args = list(...))
• removing some hard-coded arguments passed through to aqp::plotSPC()
• SoilTaxonomyDendrogram() gains argument to adjust taxon label font

sharpshootR 2.1 (2023-03-22)

• CRAN release
• all functions depending on sp classes or methods have been converted to sf
• water balance helper functions converted from sp/rgeos to sf
• breaking changes in plotTransect(), coordinate are now provided as an additional argument / sf object
• breaking changes in LL2PLSS(), all return data now packed into sf object vs. list (sharpshootR <= 1.12)
• generateLineHash() now uses sf class LINESTRING features
• huePositionPlot() gains origin argument for calculation of dE00 from arbitrary colors specified in CIELAB or Munsell
• huePositionPlot() now passes arguments to contour() via ...
• breaking changes in joinAdjacency(), now expects a data.frame (or compatible) vs. SpatialLinesDataFrame
• polygonAdjacency() now compatible with sf objects
• sampleRasterStackByMU() ignores color table and any categories from source file to ensure raw values are extracted (fixes parity with prior {raster}-based behavior) for categorical data

sharpshootR 1.12 (2022-12-09)

• CRAN release
• adding SoilTaxonomy package to suggests, to allow for better encoding of taxa levels by SoilTaxonomyDendrogram()
• SoilTaxonomyDendrogram() gains argument KST.order to adjust encoding / ordering criteria and level argument to specify the taxonomic levels to use
• SoilTaxonomyDendrogram() gains argument cluster.method to select "divisive" (default) or "agglomerative" clustering methods. Additional arguments to cluster::diana() and cluster::agnes() may be specified with a list supplied as cluster.args argument
• Spatial/raster sampling functions sampleRasterStackByMU(), samplingStability(), sample.by.poly() and MoranI_By_Raster() now use terra internally
• aspect.plot() now returns the Rayleigh Uniformity statistic and corresponding p-value as an attribute named "uniformity"
• bug fix in monthlyWB_summary() to address warning / Inf when 0 dry days
• plotWB() aesthetic fixes and additional arguments, including manual specification of y-axis limits
• aggregateColorPlot() gets a new argument for setting label orientation
• geomorphic viz* functions now use an iterative approach to re-arrange dendrogram according to "hydologic ordering"
• hydrologic ordering functions now exported: hydOrder() and iterateHydOrder()
• new function plotGeomorphCrossSection() presents a SoilProfileCollection aligned to a geomorphic summary as cross-section
• new function reconcileOSDGeomorp() convenience function for reconciling SPC and geomorphic summary tables as returned by soilDB::fetchOSD()
• plotProfileDendrogram() gains argument for re-ordering dendrogram as close to original profile IDs as possible
• dueling.dendrograms() has been deprecated, please use dendextend::tanglegram() for similar tasks
