dyntaper: Dynamic Stem Profile Models, AKA Tree Taper Equations

Performs calculations with tree taper (or stem profile) equations, including model fitting. The package implements the methods from García, O. (2015) "Dynamic modelling of tree form" <http://mcfns.net/index.php/Journal/article/view/MCFNS7.1_2>. The models are parsimonious, describe well the tree bole shape over its full length, and are consistent with wood formation mechanisms through time.
