Description: Provides methods for estimating species niche position and
        niche breadth under continuous environmental gradients. The
        package implements canonical correspondence analysis (CCA),
        partial CCA (pCCA), generalized additive models (GAM), and
        Levins' niche breadth metrics for species-level and
        community-level analyses. Methods are based on ter Braak (1986)
