lincircmod-class


An S4 class describing linear-circular relationships.


Provides functions to fit kernel density functions
to animal activity time data; plot activity distributions;
quantify overall levels of activity; statistically compare
activity metrics through bootstrapping; and evaluate variation
in linear variables with time (or other circular variables).
