PEcAn.ED2 1.8.2

• model2netcdf.ed2 no longer writes separate <year>.nc.var files for every year of output. Use PEcAn.utils::nc_write_varfiles() to create these as needed.
• Minor test fixes

PEcAn.ED2 1.8.1

• Fixed vignette compilation
• Docker build fixes

PEcAn.ED2 1.8.0

• Warning messages for model2netcdf.ed2() coming from ncdf4::ncvar_put() now are prepended with the variable name for easier debugging (#3078)
• Fixed a bug in model2netcdf.ed2() where .nc file connections were being closed multiple times, printing warnings (#3078)
• Fixed a bug affecting the generation of job.sh for runs with many PFTs (#3075)
• Added optional process_partial argument to model2netcdf.ED2() to allow it to process existing output from failed runs.
• write.config.xml.ED2() wasn't using the tag in settings correctly (#3080)
• Fixed a bug where plant_min_temp trait value wasn't being converted from ºC to K when writing config file for ED2 (#3110)
• Fixed a bug in read_E_files() affecting model2netcdf.ED2() that resulted in incorrect calculations (#3126)
• DDBH (change in DBH over time) is no longer extracted and summarized from monthly -E- files by model2netcdf.ED2(). We are not sure it makes sense to summarize this variable across cohorts of different sizes.
• The yr and yfiles arguments of read_E_files() are no longer used and the simulation date is extracted from the names of the .h5 files output by ED2.
• Fixed a bug where dimensions of output .nc file would be incorrect if a PFT was missing from ED2 output for less than a full year (#3140, #3143).
• Added optional process_partial argument to model2netcdf.ED2() to allow it to process existing output from failed
• Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package. Prior to this point changes are tracked in the main CHANGELOG for the PEcAn repository.
