memoria

Tools to quantify ecological memory in long time-series with Random Forest models (Breiman 2001 doi:10.1023/A:1010933404324) fitted with the 'ranger' library (Wright and Ziegler 2017 doi:10.18637/jss.v077.i01). Particularly oriented to palaeoecological datasets and simulated pollen curves produced by the 'virtualPollen' package, but also applicable to other long time-series involving a set of environmental drivers and a biotic response.
