moonlit: Predicting Moonlight Intensity for a Given Time and Location

Tools for predicting moonlight intensity on the ground based on the position of the moon, atmospheric conditions, and other factors. Provides functions to calculate moonlight intensity and related statistics for ecological and behavioral research, offering more accurate estimates than simple moon phase calculations. The underlying model is described in Smielak (2023) <doi:10.1007/s00265-022-03287-2>.
