Overview

The tbea package improves divergence time estimation and phylogenetic analysis, enhancing reproducibility and calibration.

Key Points

  • tbea enhances the precision of divergence time estimation through better calibration density specifications, and improves reproducibility of analyses.
  • Statistical models implemented in tbea allow for effective comparisons between prior and posterior distributions, optimizing evolutionary analyses.
  • The package includes functionalities for inferring origination times and consolidating varying distributions into single summaries, aiding researchers.
  • Two case studies demonstrate tbea's practical application in analyzing the Cynodontidae and Andean drainage separations.
