# Description

`dormancyR` aims to provide alternatives to common chill models used in horticulture to compute chill metrics in deciduous fruit tree orchards as well as functions to handle weather data. The package is inspired in the `chillR` package [@R-chillR] and produces compatible outputs. `dormancyR` also contains functions to download and handle historic ([Center for Climate and Resilience Research]()) and up-to-date ([Agrometeorologia - INIA]()) weather data from Chilean databases. Similarly, the package contains a function to download and handle weather data from a German database ([Climate Data Center]()).

`dormancyR` was developed for a scientific manuscript published in the European Journal of Agronomy: [The importance of chill model selection - a multi-site analysis]()

Since the package is not on CRAN (for the moment), the developer version of `dormancyR` can be directly installed from github using functions in the `devtools` library [@R-devtools]

```{r, eval = FALSE}
devtools::install_github("https://github.com/EduardoFernandezC/dormancyR")
library(dormancyR)
```
