Ne*tau description #34

Closed trvrb closed 10 years ago

trvrb commented 10 years ago

In Table 2 and the related discussion, the authors discuss the scaled effective population size Ne * tau. They never define what tau represents, and I don't think it is safe to assume that the reader will know this -- I certainly don't. More interpretation here would be helpful.

We've revised the manuscript to clarify the definition and interpretation of both Ne and τ.
