  1. Values are given for both A (ancient) and B (recent) parameterizations. Parameters are ancestral θ, the magnitude of population decline (η D ) and growth (η G ), and the time of the demographic event (T, in units of 2N A generations, where N A is the ancestral population size).
  2. a:set to produce roughly equal numbers of SNPs across models for a given sample size under the A parameterization (~50,000 SNPs for samples of 100 chromosomes).
