R Tutorial: How to use the Treemendous package to resolve taxonomic tree names across backbones

#ecology #codingtutorial #datascientist
Say bye to conflicting & inconsistent taxonomic name lists! 👋 Anyone working with species names knows: it's A LOT of work to harmonise different spellings and synonyms across various naming conventions. 👉 Our new R-package Treemendous, developed by Felix Specker, Andrea Paz, Tom Crowther & Daniel Maynard, uses a novel graphical approach to link synonyms across multiple taxonomic backbones - something that hasn’t been possible with a single package so far. Curious about how it works? Watch the tutorial with Felix above!
