In txm676/mmSAR2: Fit and Compare Species-Area Relationship Models Using Multimodel Inference

#' A SAR dataset describing the plants of the Galapagos Islands
#'
#' A sample dataset in the correct sars format: contains the areas of a number
#' of islands in the Galapagos, and the number of plant species recorded on each
#' island.
#' 
#' @usage data(galap)
#' @format Adata frame with 2 columns and 16 rows. Each row contains the area of
#'   an island (km2) in the Galapagos (1st column) and the number of plants on
#'   that island (2nd column).Preston (1962) also includes the island of
#'   Albemarle, but we have excluded this as it is almost six times larger than
#'   the second largest island.
