abstract: Provides a 'shiny' application to compute daily and cumulative degree-days
  from minimum and maximum temperatures using average, single triangle, and single
  sine methods, with optional upper temperature thresholds. The application maps cumulative
  thermal accumulation to user-defined developmental stage thresholds and supports
  exporting tabular and graphical outputs. The degree-day approach follows assumptions
  described by Higley et al. (1986) <https://doi.org/10.1093/ee/15.5.999>.
