pbd_durspec_density function

Probability density for duration of speciation under protracted birth-death model of diversification

pbd_durspec_density computes the probability density of the duration of speciation under the protracted speciation model for a given set of parameters

pbd_durspec_density(
    pars,
    tau
)

Arguments

• pars: Vector of parameters:

  pars[1] corresponds to b (= la_3 in Etienne & Rosindell R2012) = speciation initiation rate

  pars[2] corresponds to la_1 (= la_2 in Etienne & Rosindell 2012) = speciation completion rate

  pars[3] corresponds to mu_2 (= mu_i in ER2012) = extinction rate of incipient species

• tau: The duration of speciation for which the density must be computed

Returns

The probability density
