From: Body size, shape and ecology in tetrapods

Fig. 3

Parameter estimates from the best fitting model of body size evolution under different evolutionary regimes defined by trophic ecology (80 OUMA and 20 OUMVA), for 100 sampled simulated evolutionary histories. A Long-term mean (θ), B selection strength (α), and C evolutionary rate (σ2) (Hypothesis 3). Each point corresponds to the parameter estimate for one of the sampled simulated evolutionary histories. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
