Uncertainty-on-UTL

Description

Provide functions for the frequentist analysis of environmental variability (ev) and measurement uncertainty (mu) in occupational data without and with non-detects, using a Monte Carlo Method (MCM)

🧭 Versioning & Development Workflow

We follow a branching model with three key branches:

• main → Stable code in production (latest release version)
• dev → Active development of the next version
• feature/* → Branches for individual features or specific tasks

Release Process

Each release is tagged using a semantic versioning style with descriptive labels:

• v1.0.0-additive-on-obs
• v2.0.0-lognormal-on-true (planned)

🔖 The first release uses a simplified additive model around observed values and is preserved for comparison and didactic purposes.

🛠 See our Development Workflow for more details.
