Exploring water quality monitoring data
Description
Functions to assist in the processing and exploration of
data from monitoring programs for aquatic ecosystems. The name
"wq" stands for "water quality" and reflects a focus on time
series data for physical and chemical properties of water, as
well as the plankton. The package is intended for programs that
sample approximately monthly at discrete stations, a feature of
many legacy data sets. Although our emphasis is on aquatic
ecosystems, most of the functions should be useful for analysis
of similar-frequency time series regardless of the subject
matter.
