Package: sars 2.0.0

sars: Fit and Compare Species-Area Relationship Models Using Multimodel Inference

Implements the basic elements of the multi-model inference paradigm for up to twenty species-area relationship models (SAR), using simple R list-objects and functions, as in Triantis et al. 2012 <doi:10.1111/j.1365-2699.2011.02652.x>. The package is scalable and users can easily create their own model and data objects. Additional SAR related functions are provided.
