nodiv: Compares the Distribution of Sister Clades Through a Phylogeny

An implementation of the nodiv algorithm, see Borregaard, M.K., Rahbek, C., Fjeldsaa, J., Parra, J.L., Whittaker, R.J. & Graham, C.H. 2014. Node-based analysis of species distributions. Methods in Ecology and Evolution 5(11): 1225-1235. <DOI:10.1111/2041-210X.12283>. Package for phylogenetic analysis of species distributions. The main function goes through each node in the phylogeny, compares the distributions of the two descendant nodes, and compares the result to a null model. This highlights nodes where major distributional divergence have occurred. The distributional divergence for these nodes is mapped.
