Hello everyone,

In the week 10 lecture Sam presented some Mantel correlograms in the CDPop validation/evaluation of the black bear study. I was wondering why in the plot of Mantel r vs. time the Mantel value goes much higher than in the Mantel correlogram. E.g. slide 66: the Mantel r reaches nearly 0.7 after 200 years but the r value in the corresponding correlogram never exceeds 0.2 at the smallest distance class. Why?

Thanks!
