Implements the methods of McGrath et al. (2020) 
    <doi:10.1177/0962280219889080> and Cai et al. (2021) 
    <doi:10.1177/09622802211047348> for estimating the sample mean and standard 
    deviation from commonly reported quantiles in meta-analysis. These methods 
    can be applied to studies that report the sample median, sample size, and 
    one or both of (i) the sample minimum and maximum values and (ii) the first 
    and third quartiles. The corresponding standard error estimators described 
    by McGrath et al. (2023) <doi:10.1177/09622802221139233> are also included.

Includes R functions for the estimation of tumor clones percentages for both snp data and (whole) genome sequencing data. See Cheng, Y., Dai, J. Y., Paulson, T. G., Wang, X., Li, X., Reid, B.

Estimation of production functions by the Olley-Pakes, Levinsohn-Petrin and Wooldridge methodologies. 
    The package aims to reproduce the results obtained with the Stata's user written opreg <http://www.stata-journal.com/article.html?article=st0145> and levpet <http://www.stata-journal.com/article.html?article=st0060> commands. 
    The first was originally proposed by Olley, G.S. and Pakes, A. (1996) <doi:10.2307/2171831>.
    The second by Levinsohn, J. and Petrin, A. (2003) <doi:10.1111/1467-937X.00246>.
	And the third by Wooldridge (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.econlet.2009.04.026>.

The new yield tables developed by the Northwest German Forest 
  Research Institute (NW-FVA) provide a forest management tool for the five 
  main commercial tree species oak, beech, spruce, Douglas-fir and pine for 
  northwestern Germany. The new method applied for deriving yield tables 
  combines measurements of growth and yield trials with growth simulations 
  using a state-of-the-art single-tree growth simulator. By doing so, the new 
  yield tables reflect the current increment level and the recommended 
  graduated thinning from above is the underlying management concept. The yield
  tables are provided along with methods for deriving the site index and for 
  interpolating between age and site indices and extrapolating beyond age and 
  site index ranges. The inter-/extrapolations are performed traditionally by 
  the rule of proportion or with a functional approach.
