Description: Post-construction fatality monitoring studies at wind
    facilities are based on data from searches for bird and bat carcasses
    in plots beneath turbines. Bird and bat carcasses can fall outside of
    the search plot. Bird and bat carcasses from wind turbines often fall
    outside of the searched area. To compensate, area correction (AC)
    estimations are calculated to estimate the percentage of fatalities
    that fall within the searched area versus those that fall outside of
    it. This package provides two likelihood based methods and one physics
    based method (Hull and Muir (2010)
    <doi:10.1080/14486563.2010.9725253>, Huso and Dalthorp (2014)
    <doi:10.1002/jwmg.663>) to estimate the carcass fall distribution.
    There are also functions for calculating the proportion of area
    searched within one unit annuli, log logistic distribution functions,
    and truncated distribution functions.
