plot.threshML: Plot the rate of evolution through time estimated by the "ClimExp" model in the fit_t_thresh function.

Description

Plot estimated evolutionary rate of the latent variable in the "environmental" threshold model as a function of the environmental data and time.

Usage

# S3 method for threshML
plot(x, steps = 100, ...)

Value

plot.threshML returns invisibly a list with the following components used in the current plot:

time_steps

the times steps where the climatic function was evaluated to compute the rate. The number of steps is controlled through the argument steps.

values

the estimated (relative) rate values through time estimated at each time_steps

Arguments

x

an object of class 'threshML' obtained from a fit_t_thresh fit.

steps

the number of steps from the root to the present used to compute the relative rate \(\sigma(t)\) through time.

...

further arguments to be passed to plot. See ?plot.
