pastclim: Manipulate Time Series of Climate Reconstructions

Methods to easily extract and manipulate climate reconstructions for ecological and anthropological analyses, as described in Leonardi et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/ecog.06481>. The package includes datasets of palaeoclimate reconstructions, present observations, and future projections from multiple climate models.
