Thrilled that our research is out and on the cover!  The macro-eco-evolutionary interplay between dispersal, competition, and landscape structure using an upscaled individual-based model over 5 million years. πŸ“„https://doi.org/10.1098/rstb.2023.0140 🏝️ #gen3sis
#gen3sis v.1.5.11 now on CRAN 11.2023   Changes:
- fix comb phylogeny
- color deficient, blind and B&W safe colours
- speed-up of loop_ecology function
- fix nexus phylo file format
- fix accounting of extinctions times
- fix phylo checks if simulation did not end at t=0
- fix package build notes citation and class comparisons

New study out in #Evolution 🀠 with Damien Esquerré, Daria Lipsky, Loïc Pellissier (@ploic), and Lydian Boschman.

Here we look at the drivers of diversification of Liolaemus lizards 🦎 throughout the Andes πŸ”οΈ using a mechanistic model βš™οΈ of spatial diversification #Gen3sis

We found that paleoclimate change β˜€οΈ ❄️ produced a 'sweet spot' at mid-elevations which maximises speciation relative to extinction to produce a hotspot of biodiversity.

Elevational Goldilocks zone underlies the exceptional diversity of a large lizard radiation (Liolaemus; Liolaemidae)

Abstract. Mountains are among the most biodiverse regions on the planet, and how these landforms shape diversification through the interaction of biological tra

Check the cool insights @sciencemagazine on biotic exchange at the emblematic Wallace’s Line enabled by #gen3sis, my mechanistic simulation tool baby. Past environmental regimes matters!

So proud of you! :) Huge thanks to the lead of this story @AlexDSkeels πŸ™πŸ§žβ€β™‚οΈ and members of the dream team
Hola GalΓ­cia πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Έ, I'm more than happy to have arrived in Vigo.. excited to meet the Mapas lab crew and have some fun time here, by modelling biodiversity using #gen3sis and deep time environmental data. Looking forward to listen from the paleo experts   . It prob. won't be as smooth as with @AlexDSkeels @brosenbaum during the #ms3bm but I will try my best to use what I learned  #ms3bmish #vigo
I decided to run a course #ms3bm #iDiv on my first week after parental leave. Diving into #gen3sis, a spatially explicit, #mechanistic #ecoevo #biodiversity #model, was def. not easy, specially with lack of sleep. But the reward of sharing knowledge πŸ”„, is exactly what makes any hard work look doable for me. Thanks @AlexDSkeels @brosenbaum for making this possible! I'm really enjoying to work with this super varried crew! I'm learning every day something new ❀️

Deep Earth history events coupled with #gen3sis explains biodiversity disparity in the tropics. Earth globe europe-africa! Huge thanks to @AlexDSkeels
