`helios` is an R package that calculates heating and cooling degrees using high temporal and spatial resolution of climate data and population data. `helios` currently supports WRF data and ISIMIP-CMIP data, or same format with any of them. For more details:
* [GCAM-Regions Tutorial](https://jgcri.github.io/helios/articles/vignette_gcam-regions.html) introduces how to use `helios` to calculate heating and cooling degree-days for 32 global regions in GCAM.
* [GCAM-USA Tutorial](https://jgcri.github.io/helios/articles/vignette_gcam-usa.html) introduces how to use `helios` to calculate heating and cooling degree-hours for CONUS in GCAM-USA.
