STEPCAM: ABC-SMC Inference of STEPCAM

Collection of model estimation, and model plotting functions related to the STEPCAM family of community assembly models. STEPCAM is a STEPwise Community Assembly Model that infers the relative contribution of Dispersal Assembly, Habitat Filtering and Limiting Similarity from a dataset consisting of the combination of trait and abundance data. See also <doi:10.1890/14-0454.1> for more information.
