Niche Analyst (NicheA) was developed based on the BAM framework which allows users to create virtual spaces and virtual species, and to analyze ecological niches in both multivariate environmental and geographic spaces, linking views of the niche in the two spaces. The unique functionality in NicheA, not available in other software programs, is estimating Grinnellian niches of species based on environmental variables and occurrence records, but with a clear focus on fundamental ecological niches. NicheA can display ecological niches; calculate their shape, density, location, and other attributes; and quantify similarity among multiple niches.

Binary2Data
Export data from "binary" to "data" .csv from TMS compatible loggers
A script to export / convert data from a "binary" .csv to a "data" .csv file for TOMST TMS model 91, 92 and 94 compatible loggers. If some data has been not correctly exported using the TOMST Lolly software, this script will be able to recover all the data saved in the "binary" .csv file and save it as a "data" .csv file. Simply select all the "binary" files you want to export the information from and the data will be exported to corresponding "data" .csv files. Tested on a handful "binary" .csv files from 91, 92 and 94-type TMS loggers. -

Biogenesis Color Mod
Mod for evolution simulation and artificial life program Biogenesis
You can download the Color Mod at the Biogenesis main site too (included in the main download now). You also find the sourcecode there. If you want to post a review, remember that this is only a modification, so comment on my changes, not on the simulation. Original project by Joan Queralt Molina: https://sourceforge.net/projects/biogenesis/ Includes Tyler Colemans "Features Mod": https://sourceforge.net/projects/biogenesisfeatu/ Biogenesis discussion forum: https://sourceforge.net/p/biogenesis/discussion/ Biogenesis runs faster (at least for myself) if you open a Google Chrome window (don´t know why :D) -

CDPOPgui
GUI Frontend for CDPOP
CDPOPgui is a GUI Frontend for CDPOP What is CDPOP? CDPOP (Cost Distance POPulations) is a spatially-explicit simulator of gene-flow in complex landscapes to explain observed population responses and provide a foundation for landscape genetics. The program implements individual-based population modeling with Mendelian inheritance on a resistant landscape. Simulation begins with an initial homogeneous population and followed by divergence through time as functions of individual based movement, breeding and dispersal on a continuous cost surface. Acknowledgements Allen Warren developed the GUI.The citation for this program is: Landguth EL, Cushman SA (2010) CDPOP: A spatially-explicit cost distance population genetics program. Mol. Ecol. Res. 10, 156-161. Updates to the software, including natural selection, can be referenced with Landguth EL, Cushman SA, Johnson NA (2012) Simulating natural selection in landscape genetics.
