Description: Infer causation from observational data through pattern
        causality analysis (PC), with original algorithm for time
        series data from Stavroglou et al. (2020)
        <doi:10.1073/pnas.1918269117>, as well as methodological
        extensions for spatial cross-sectional data introduced by Zhang
        & Wang (2025) <doi:10.1080/13658816.2025.2581207>, together
        with a systematic description proposed in Lyu et al. (2026)
        <doi:10.1016/j.compenvurbsys.2026.102435>.
