Status for January 4

What did I work on today?

  • parasiteExtinction: Georeferencing tutorial so I can start helping the group

  • fishParasite: Emailed Patrick for advice on incorporating taxonomic data. Most likely route is to calculate a taxonomic distance matrix, take n eigenvalues of that matrix, according to the same threshold I implement for the parasite community eigenvectors.

  • VerticaBD: cleaned up code a bit for a guest lecture in a couple months. Need to go through a little refresher on the crazy vSQL code I wrote to use Place.

  • thresholdDensity: pushed model dev along, but it’s slow-going

What should I be working on tomorrow

  • thresholdDensity: model needs tweaks to make it agree with data. Otherwise, what’s the point?

  • barrigaNetwork: push some of this along

  • srsMetacom: ask Chris about status of his work on it
