@mmore500 - how is the review going? Do you have any questions? |
Thanks for checking in. No issues so far! I have some time set aside shortly to sit down and complete my review. |
This sounds great, @mmore500 ! Please let me know if any questions arise. Thank you again! |
@annazhukova - how is the review going? do you have any questions yet? |
Some comments on the manuscript. Planning to follow up on the software content shortly.

I have filled in my checklist, and here are a few comments:
I have not ticked this iteam as looking at the contributors page I saw that the user my-linh-luu seemed to have contributed substantially to the software but does not seem to be on the authors’ list
From what I understood from the guidlines, the software needs to be already quite established (cited, used) which does not yet seem to be the case here.
I saw that the first tag was in June 2022, so one would expect a quite established software with quite some usages
I have counted about 600 on the contributors page
3 (on the paper, more on github)
I have assessed the LOC with
According to google-scholar the only citation is a self-citation
I think that a clear example of an analysis pipeline with the software would highly increase the chances of future citations (as people would know how to use the software for their data).

There are guidlines but they could be better illustrated: see issue
From what I understood at first the goal of the software is to allow to analyse the correlation between the climate and species evolution. Though reading further and especially looking at the figure, it seems to me that the goal might be to select gene regions that have the most correlation (?)
There is the corresponding section, but it reads to me a bit too general. A more concrete example would help here too.
The authors only mention their own previous work in this section. I would expect here seeing what can be done with other packages, for instance used in classical phylogeography: Ancestral Character Reconstruction for geographic and or climate characters, GLM with climate as a factor etc.
Adding more information to the State of the field section would add more references too |
@TahiriNadia - it looks like @mmore500 and @annazhukova have offered comments on the submission. Do you have any questions on how to proceed? |
@mmore500 - when it's possible, please place check marks in your checklist above. It seems to be empty right now. Thanks again! |
Apologies for the delay. I thought I had posted some comments on the manuscript much earlier, but the post must have not gone through. Luckily, I was able to find a copy of them and share them in tahiri-lab/aPhyloGeo#49 edit: nevermind, I found those earlier in the thread. |
I have updated my checklist, using |
Thank you for your comments. We will respond to each of them individually (with one of the co-authors, @geomarceau). |
Thank you @mmore500. |
