Description: Builds on the downscaling concepts operationalized in the
    'ClimateNA' tool (<https://climatena.ca>) (Wang et al. 2016
    <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0156720>).  It provides downscaling of
    observational and simulated climate data using change-factor
    downscaling, a simple method that adds low-spatial-resolution climate
    anomalies to a high-spatial-resolution reference climatological map,
    with additional elevation adjustment for temperature.
    Elevation-adjusted monthly values of basic climate elements
    (temperature and precipitation) are then used to estimate derived
    variables (e.g., degree-days) based on published equations and
    parameters from Wang et al. 2016.  This package is designed to be fast
    and to minimize local data storage requirements.  To do so, it uses a
    remote 'PostGIS' database, and optionally caches data locally.
