Joseph,

Check out this tutorial on the 'ModisDownload' script:
http://r-gis.net/?q=ModisDownload.  I've used it for similar work, and it
is great.

You'll need to download the NASA MODIS Reproject Tool (MRT) and the
ModisDownload.R script from the site linked above.  Then, follow the linked
tutorial and set the parameters of the ModisDownload function to download
the tiles you need.  Have the MRT tool output them as .tif using the R
function.  From there, you can use the typical raster analysis packages.

Good luck,
Andrew
