Fig. 3: Comparison of the 83 TPC models across 2739 thermal performance datasets.
From: No universal mathematical model for thermal performance curves across traits and taxonomic groups

Left: dendrogram of models based on the similarity of the fits that they produce. Branch lengths represent median Euclidean distances among resulting TPC fits (see “Methods”). Models that branch off very close to each other typically produce nearly identical fits, whereas models separated by large distances tend to produce highly distinct fits. Models based on biochemical kinetics are shown in pink, whereas phenomenological models are in black. Right: The AICc weight of each model (rows) for each dataset (columns). Note that columns have been ordered so that datasets with similar patterns of AICc weights are within close proximity of each other. The figure was rendered using the ggtree80 (v. 2.2.4) and the ComplexHeatmap81 (v.2.12.1) R packages. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
