The effect of single biome occupancy on the estimation of biome shifts and the detection of biome conservatism

Tests the hypothesis that a single biome occupancy approach results in fewer estimated biome shifts than a more realistic multiple biome approach, causing a bias towards the detection of biome conservatism. Examines published studies and analyses nine New Zealand plant lineages estimating biome shif...

Description
Summary:Tests the hypothesis that a single biome occupancy approach results in fewer estimated biome shifts than a more realistic multiple biome approach, causing a bias towards the detection of biome conservatism. Examines published studies and analyses nine New Zealand plant lineages estimating biome shifts and quantifying phylogenetic signal using both single biome and multiple biome approaches.
