title: 'tidyttmoment: Functional Trait Moment Calculation'
version: 0.0.5
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.tidyttmoment
abstract: Calculates the community four 'moments' (mean, variance, skewness, and kurtosis)
  of a given trait based on the moments described in Wieczynski et al. (2019) <https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1813723116>.
  These functional metrics are extremely useful in characterizing the distribution
  of traits in a plant community. It also provides tidyverse-friendly wrappers to
  seamlessly calculate advanced functional diversity indices (e.g., FDis, Rao's Q)
  using 'fundiversity' (Grenie et al. 2023 <https://doi.org/10.1111/ecog.06585>) and
  functional rarity indices using 'funrar' (Grenie et al. 2017 <https://doi.org/10.1111/ddi.12629>).
  Evaluating these community-weighted moments and diversity metrics allows researchers
  to evaluate shifts in optimal phenotypes and understand ecological filtering with
  exactness.
