Description: Provides a flexible and comprehensive workflow for species
    distribution modeling, from data preparation (occurrence filtering,
    calibration areas, pseudo-absence and background sampling, data
    partitioning, and collinearity reduction) to model fitting, tuning,
    evaluation, prediction, ensemble modeling, and post-processing. The package is
    described in Velazco et al. (2022) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13874>.
    Implemented methods include the Shape metric to measure model
    extrapolation of Velazco et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/ecog.06992>,
    ensembles of small models of Breiner et al. (2015)
    <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12403> and Breiner et al. (2018)
    <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12957>, Gaussian process models of Golding and
    Purse (2016) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12523>, and occurrence-based
    constraints for post-processing predictions of Mendes et al. (2020)
    <doi:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2020.109180>.
