+# Packages
+Serveral packages were used to build the functionality in `MBSStools`.  
+
+1. FlowSum; no extra packages
+
+2. IonContrib; no extra packages
+
+3. MapTaxaObs; `readxl` and `rgdal`
+
+4. metric.scores; `dplyr`
+
+5. metric.values; `dplyr`
+
+6. PHIcalc; no extra packages
+
+These packages should install automatically when `MBSStools` installs.  But if you encounter issues with a function not working ensure that the necessary package dependencies are installed.
+
+To install packages follow the example of the code below for installing `dplyr`.
+
+```{r insall example 2, eval=FALSE}

These can be changed to modify the index names, bioregions, metric names, and scoring thresholds.  This table can be modified and used as input into the function.  For simplicity this table is included by default.
