fxTWAPLS: An Improved Version of WA-PLS

Overview

The goal of this package is to provide an improved version of WA-PLS by including the tolerances of taxa and the frequency of the sampled climate variable. This package also provides a way of leave-out cross-validation that removes both the test site and sites that are both geographically close and climatically close for each cycle, to avoid the risk of pseudo-replication.

Installation
