Phylogenetics for the Environmental Sciences
Description
Eco-phylogenetic and community phylogenetic analyses.
Keeps community ecological and phylogenetic data matched up and
comparable using 'comparative.comm' objects. Wrappers for common
community phylogenetic indices ('pez.shape', 'pez.evenness',
'pez.dispersion', and 'pez.dissimilarity' metrics). Implementation
of Cavender-Bares (2004) correlation of phylogenetic and
ecological matrices ('fingerprint.regression'). Phylogenetic
Generalised Linear Mixed Models (PGLMMs; 'pglmm') following Ives &
Helmus (2011) and Rafferty & Ives (2013). Simulation of null
assemblages, traits, and phylogenies ('scape', 'sim.meta.comm').
