  <dc:description>Lake morphometry metrics are used by limnologists to understand,
    among other things, the ecological processes in a lake. Traditionally, these
    metrics are calculated by hand, with planimeters, and increasingly with
    commercial GIS products. All of these methods work; however, they are either
    outdated, difficult to reproduce, or require expensive licenses to use. The
    'lakemorpho' package provides the tools to calculate a typical suite
    of these metrics from an input elevation model and lake polygon. The metrics
    currently supported are: fetch, major axis, minor axis, major/minor axis 
    ratio, maximum length, maximum width, mean width, maximum depth, mean depth, 
    shoreline development, shoreline length, surface area, and volume.</dc:description>
