tikatuwq: Water Quality Assessment and Environmental Compliance in Brazil

Tools to import, clean, validate, and analyze freshwater quality data in Brazil. Implements water quality indices including the Water Quality Index (WQI/IQA), the Trophic State Index (TSI/IET) after Carlson (1977) <doi:10.4319/lo.1977.22.2.0361> and Lamparelli (2004) <https://www.teses.usp.br/teses/disponiveis/41/41134/tde-20032006-075813/publico/TeseLamparelli2004.pdf>, and the National Sanitation Foundation Water Quality Index (NSF WQI) <doi:10.1007/s11157-023-09650-7>. The package also checks compliance with Brazilian standard CONAMA Resolution 357/2005 <https://conama.mma.gov.br/?id=450&option=com_sisconama&task=arquivo.download> and generates reproducible reports for routine monitoring workflows. The example dataset ('wq_demo') is now a real subset from monitoring data (BURANHEM river, 2020-2024, 4 points, 20 rows, 14 columns including extra 'rio', 'lat', 'lon'). All core examples and vignettes use this realistic sample, improving reproducibility and documentation value for users.
