v3.0.0

version 3.0.0

Major update

new features

• calc_comm_div now replaces get_mob_stats. The ancillary plotting function
  plot.mob_stats is now replaced with plot_comm_div. We hope to eventually
  add back in bootstrapping confidence intervals for the statistics but that is
  not currently supported. If you would like to know more about this design
  decision see the discussion here: #255.
• plot_rarefaction is a bit more versatile with many new arguments
  that provide options for smoothing or averaging rarefaction curves
  when making comparisons within or between groups respectively.
• The R package beta_C by Thore Engel has now been absorbed into
  the mobr package. Use function calc_beta_div or calc_comm_div
  with beta in the scales argument to compute coverage based beta
  diversity. Note the index in this case is S_C (i.e., richness S for a
  given level of coverage C)
• a vignette was added to demonstrate how to make computations of beta
  diversity using mobr called beta_div_demo
