Overview

About

Maintained by Jernej JevsenakFirst published 2022-04-202 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Climate-sensitive, single-tree forest simulator based on data-driven machine learning. It simulates the main forest processes— radial growth, height growth, mortality, crown recession, regeneration, and harvesting—so users can assess stand development under climate and management scenarios. The height model is described by Skudnik and Jevšenak (2022) doi:10.1016/j.foreco.2022.120017, the basal-area increment model by Jevšenak and Skudnik (2021) doi:10.1016/j.foreco.2020.118601, and an overview of the MLFS package, workflow, and applications is provided by Jevšenak, Arnič, Krajnc, and Skudnik (2023), Ecological Informatics doi:10.1016/j.ecoinf.2023.102115.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

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

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

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("jernejjevsenak/MLFS")

Development version from jernejjevsenak/MLFS. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-mlfs

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# 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-MLFS

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-MLFS

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