photobiologySun 0.5.1

• Add sun_hourly_ozone.spct with simulated spectral data for terrestrial solar radiation computed for climatology mean ozone column and for a 20% depletion, both under clear sky.
• Add sun_elevation.spct with spectral data from TUV simulations under clear sky conditions for different sun elevation angles.
• Add four_days_1min.data containing data for photon irradiances of UV-B, UV-A2, UV-A1, Blue, Red, Far-red and PAR and energy irradiance of global radiation for four days logged at a frequency of 1 min.

photobiologySun 0.5.0 (2024-04-01)

This update may break some existing code because of changes to naming of factor levels and addition of attributes.

• Fix scaling error (10⁶) in ASTM E490 AM0 spectrum included in sun_reference.mspct.
• Rebuild data objects with 'photobiology' 0.11.2 adding metadata and spct.idx when previsously missing.
• Add some examples to documentation.

photobiologySun 0.4.1 (2019-03-27)

• Rebuild data objects with 'photobiology' 0.9.26 to fix minor bugs.
• Replace non-ASCII characters in documentation.

photobiologySun 0.1.3

• Edited the script to use .spct as name tag for spectra instead of .dt.
• Rebuilt with current versions of 'photobiology' and 'MayaCalc' packages.
• Edited the vignette to make use of the new function plot.source.spct() specializing the plot() generic.

photobiologySun 0.1.2
