  <dc:title>Model Cumulative Growing Degree-Days for Pest Monitoring</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package TrackTrap version 1.0.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Pest monitoring is crucial, especially during the early season, to understand the distribution and the proliferation of the target pest. Raw count data from pest monitoring/traps can be coupled with environmental variables such as temperature, growing degree-day ('GDD') etc. to get useful insights about the pest phenology. This package pulls temperature data from the California Irrigation Management Information System ('CIMIS', &lt;https://cimis.water.ca.gov&gt;), the 'Daymet' application programming interface ('API', &lt;https://daymet.ornl.gov&gt;), or 'Open Meteo' ('API', &lt;https://open-meteo.com/&gt;) sequentially for a user-specified time period and calculates cumulative growing degree-days. Users provide pest development thresholds (lower and upper temperatures), pest of concern, and the geographic coordinates of the trap location to track emergence and phenology.</dc:description>
