arg_para: Get possible values of argument para

In TheoPannetier/DDvTDtools: Compare diversity-dependent (DD) and time-dependent (TD) diversification models

Description

Input values currently accepted for argument para.

Usage

arg_para()

Details

Use para_to_pars() to translate para into parameter values.

Each value is a four-digit number coding for a set of parameter values. In order: crown age, baseline speciation rate (λ_0), extinction rate (μ_0), and carrying capacity (K). Values are encoded as follows:

digit	crown_age	λ_0	μ_0	K
1	5	-	0	40
2	10	0.8	-	80
3	15	-	-	-
4	60	-	0.4	-

For example, para = 3241 denotes the following parameter set:

• crown age = 15 myr

• λ_0 = 0.8

• μ_0 = 0.4

• K = 40.

This para code can be converted to parameter values with para_to_pars().

Note that many cells in the table above are left empty, and only three parameters actually change value across parameter sets. These empty cells correspond to parameter values that were considered in earlier steps of the project, and later abandonned.
