The production of certified reference materials (CRMs) requires various statistical tests depending on the task and recorded data to ensure that reported values of CRMs are appropriate. Often these tests are performed according to the procedures described in ISO GUIDE 35:2017'. The eCerto package contains a Shiny app which provides functionality to load, process, report and backup data recorded during CRM production and facilitates following the recommended procedures. It is described in Lisec et al (2023) <doi:10.1007/s00216-023-05099-3> and can also be accessed online <https://apps.bam.de/shn00/eCerto/> without package installation.

The EXPOS model uses a digital elevation model (DEM) to estimate exposed and protected areas for a given hurricane wind direction and inflection angle. The resulting topographic exposure maps can be combined with output from the HURRECON model to estimate hurricane wind damage across a region. For details on the original version of the EXPOS model written in Borland Pascal', see: Boose, Foster, and Fluet (1994) <doi:10.2307/2937142>, Boose, Chamberlin, and Foster (2001) <doi:10.1890/0012-9615(2001)071[0027:LARIOH]2.0.CO;2>, and Boose, Serrano, and Foster (2004) <doi:10.1890/02-4057>.

Empirical Bayes thresholding using the methods developed by I. M. Johnstone and B. W. Silverman. The basic problem is to estimate a mean vector given a vector of observations of the mean vector plus white noise, taking advantage of possible sparsity in the mean vector. Within a Bayesian formulation, the elements of the mean vector are modelled as having, independently, a distribution that is a mixture of an atom of probability at zero and a suitable heavy-tailed distribution. The mixing parameter can be estimated by a marginal maximum likelihood approach. This leads to an adaptive thresholding approach on the original data. Extensions of the basic method, in particular to wavelet thresholding, are also implemented within the package.

This package provides environment hooks that obtain errors and warnings which occur during the execution of code to automatically search for solutions.

Null models to analyse ecological networks (e.g. food webs, flower-visitation networks, seed-dispersal networks) and detect resource preferences or non-random interactions among network nodes. Tools are provided to run null models, test for and plot preferences, plot and analyse bipartite networks, and export null model results in a form compatible with other network analysis packages. The underlying null model was developed by Agusti et al. (2003) Molecular Ecology <doi:10.1046/j.1365-294X.2003.02014.x> and the full application to ecological networks by Vaughan et al.

Fits a state-space mass-balance model for marine ecosystems, which implements dynamics derived from Ecopath with Ecosim ('EwE') <https://ecopath.org/> while fitting to time-series of fishery catch, biomass indices, age-composition samples, and weight-at-age data. Ecostate fits biological parameters (e.g., equilibrium mass) and measurement parameters (e.g., catchability coefficients) jointly with residual variation in process errors, and can include Bayesian priors for parameters.

Replication methods to compute some basic statistic operations (means, standard deviations, frequency tables, percentiles, mean comparisons using weighted effect coding, generalized linear models, and linear multilevel models) in complex survey designs comprising multiple imputed or nested imputed variables and/or a clustered sampling structure which both deserve special procedures at least in estimating standard errors. See the package documentation for a more detailed description along with references.

Various analytical tools to perform sensitivity analysis using different methods are supported (e.g. frequentist models with bootstrapping and permutations options, Bayesian models). The included commands can be used for simple randomised trials, cluster randomised trials and multisite trials. The methods can also be used more widely beyond education trials. This package can be used to evaluate other intervention designs using Frequentist and Bayesian multilevel models.

Production efficiency and economic efficiency are crucial concepts in agriculture/horticulture for sustainable and profitable practices. It helps to determine the optimal use of resources to maximize outputs and profitability. Production efficiency focuses on the optimal use of resources to produce goods, while economic efficiency ensures these goods are produced and allocated in a way that maximizes economic welfare. Production efficiency and economic efficiency are calculated with the help of the formula given by (Kumar et al., 2017) <doi:10.21921/jas.v4i04.10202>.

EffectStars provides functions to visualize regression models with categorical response as proposed by Tutz and Schauberger (2013) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2012.701379>. The effects of the variables are plotted with star plots in order to allow for an optical impression of the fitted model.
