-
checkerboard: edited protocol to be a single shot experiment.
-
networkEWS: some reading, some simulation, some conceptual development.
-
reading: new Ecology stat report (here) argues ordination scores of interaction matrix are a measure of diet breadth. I guess this means that what I considered a measure of parasite community composition per host species in this paper could be considered a measure of host range (by the same logic applied in their paper)?
-
macroHelminth: some small edits. NODF stuff is still running, so I can’t do much until that’s done.
-
helminthR: looked into the feasibility of scraping the year off host-parasite citation records. Many don’t have years, and the ones that do don’t necessarily follow a specific citation format (I’d basically be splitting up each string and looking for 4 consecutive numbers).
-
newIdeas: took some time to sit and think, play around with some of the helminth data, etc. It was good. I should probably be working more on beetle projects now though.
