andrew-hipp/traitsPopSim: Generate simulated trait data structured by population

This package simulates trait data in a structured hierarchical sampling design, where observations ("leaves") are nested within individuals ("trees"), and individuals within "sites" or populations. It provides tools for visualizing power of different sampling strategies to detect differences among populations. The package simulates data under means and covariances (at the tree and site level) based on empirical data provided by the user. Thus it can serve as a tool for planning empirical studies based on preliminary data.
