Since the R CMD check function responsible for locating and checking
the DOIs from the package metadata expects to see them URL-encoded, it
should be possible to put your DOI through paste0('<doi:',
utils::URLencode(doi), '>') in order to generate the correct link.

Another workaround is to generate a shortDOI that would redirect to the
same place as the original DOI:
https://shortdoi.org/10.1175/1520-0493(1972)100%3C0081:OTAOSH%3E2.3.CO;2
Now <doi:10/cr3qwn> should work like the original DOI.
