An Overview of the sharpshootR Package

Index by Topic

Soil Color / Color Science

Spatial Data

Regional Climate and Soil Climate

Data Interfaces

  • CDEC_StationInfo(): information on CDEC stations
  • CDEC_query(): submit a generic query to CDEC web-service
  • CDEC_snowQuery: submit a query to the CDEC web-service specifically for CA cooperative snow survey data

Climate Summaries

  • FFD(): frost-free day estimation
  • FFDplot(): visualization of frost-free day summary
  • HenryTimeLine(): graphical summary of sensor data from the Henry Soil and Water Database
  • PCP_plot(): graphical depiction of “percentiles of cumulative precipitation”

Water Balance

  • prepareDailyClimateData(): collect data required to run a simple water balance model at a daily time step

  • prepare_SSURGO_hydro_data(): collect soil property data from SSURGO to parametrize water balance model

  • dailyWB_SSURGO(): perform a daily water balance using SSURGO data

  • simpleWB(): simple interface to the hydromad bucket.sim (leaky bucket) model

  • dailyWB(): daily water balance via hydromad bucket.sim (leaky bucket) model

  • monthlyWB(): monthly water balance via hydromad bucket.sim (leaky bucket) model

  • plotWB(): bar graph style visualization of water balance simulation

  • plotWB_lines(): line graph style visualization of water balance simulation

  • estimateSoilMoistureState(): convert volumetric water content into approximate soil moisture status

  • moistureStateProportions(): summarize soil moisture state via proportions over month, week, or Julian day

  • moistureStateThreshold(): convert proportions into probability of exceedance based on given threshold

  • plotAvailWater(): create a simplistic diagram of various fractions of water help within the soil pore-space

Soil Survey Data

Soil Series Summaries

  • vizAnnualClimate(): visualization method for annual climate summaries via soilDB::fetchOSD(..., extended = TRUE)
  • vizFlatsPosition(): visualization method for flat geomorphic types summaries via soilDB::fetchOSD(..., extended = TRUE)
  • vizGeomporphicComponent(): visualization method for 3D geomorphic description summaries via soilDB::fetchOSD(..., extended = TRUE)
  • vizHillslopePosition: visualization method for 2D geomorphic description summaries via soilDB::fetchOSD(..., extended = TRUE)
  • vizMountainPosition(): visualization method for mountain geomorphic description summaries via soilDB::fetchOSD(..., extended = TRUE)
  • vizSurfaceShape(): visualization method for surface shape (curvature) summaries via soilDB::fetchOSD(..., extended = TRUE)
  • vizTerracePosition(): visualization method for terrace geomorphic description summaries via soilDB::fetchOSD(..., extended = TRUE)
  • reconcileOSDGeomorph(): create a subset of SoilProfileCollection and extended records from soilDB::fetchOSD(..., extended = TRUE) such that no series are missing in either

Geomorphic Data Summaries

  • plotGeomorphCrossSection: display soil profile sketches along a geomorphic cross-section
  • hydOrder(): hydrologic ordering of a geomorphic proportion matrix

Soil Taxonomy / Numerical Classification

  • plotProfileDendrogram(): “hang” soil profile sketches from a dendrogram
  • SoilTaxonomyDendrogram(): arrange soil profile sketches according to subgroup level classification in Soil Taxonomy

Misc.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
