datasets

Reconstruction of paleoclimate niches using phylogenetic comparative
methods and projection reconstructed niches onto paleoclimate maps.
The user can specify various models of trait evolution or estimate the best fit
model, include fossils, use one or multiple phylogenies for inference, and make
animations of shifting suitable habitat through time. This model was first used
in Lawing and Polly (2011), and further implemented in Lawing et al (2016) and
Rivera et al (2020).
