kuenm2: Detailed Development of Ecological Niche Models

A new set of tools to help with the development of detailed ecological niche models using multiple algorithms. Pre-modeling analyses and explorations can be done to prepare data. Model calibration (model selection) can be done by creating and testing models with several parameter combinations. Handy options for producing final models with transfers are included. Other tools to assess extrapolation risks and variability in model transfers are also available. Methodological and theoretical basis for the methods implemented here can be found in: Peterson et al. (2011) <https://www.degruyter.com/princetonup/view/title/506966>, Radosavljevic and Anderson (2014) <doi:10.1111/jbi.12227>, Peterson et al. (2018) <doi:10.1111/nyas.13873>, Cobos et al.
