About

Maintained by Shuo WenFirst published 2026-08-051 releasesCRAN page ↗

Data management and cleaning for dendrometer and sap flux data, including gap detection, NA identification, missing value interpolation, and date conversion. The package also calculates multiple growth metrics of tree radial change data, including the cumulative growth over the entire observation period, daily cumulative growth, and growth changes between adjacent time intervals. Various approaches can be applied to calculate the night delta-Tmax required for sap flow (Peters et al., 2018, <doi: 10.1111/nph.15241>) and subsequently estimate sap flow density (Granier, 1987, <doi: 10.1093/treephys/3.4.309>). In addition, it supports the creation of simple time‑series point plots to visually display the dynamic changes in tree growth status or sap flow density during that period.

Install

R (CRAN)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("DendroFlux", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-DendroFlux

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-DendroFlux

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
