Species distribution modeling for honeycreepers on Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi informs conservation action

We analyzed habitat suitability for five Hawaiian honeycreepers on Kaua'i, Hawai'i to generate life history and habitat use knowledge and to identify priority sites for conservation action. As our study species are vulnerable, threatened, and endangered species, we have removed all location data from the data published here. We instead include as input to Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) a csv file with the extracted environmental variables at each presence point. MaxEnt can be run from just this table, though that is not how we ran it. Aside from specific locations, the attached data is the entirety of datasets we used in our analysis and all code needed to run the analysis. Any missing code represents a non-code based portion of our analysis. For example, we ran MaxEnt in the MaxEnt GUI, so there is no code to create our MaxEnt models. Full datasets with precise location data, if required, can be requested from Lisa "Cali" Crampton at [e-mail].

本研究针对夏威夷群岛考艾岛（Kaua'i）的5种夏威夷旋蜜雀（Hawaiian honeycreepers）开展生境适宜性分析，旨在获取其生活史与生境利用相关知识，并确定保护行动优先区域。由于本研究涉及的物种均为易危、受威胁及濒危物种，我们已移除本次公开数据中的所有位置信息。为此，我们将每个存在点位提取得到的环境变量整理为CSV文件，作为最大熵模型（Maximum Entropy, MaxEnt）的输入数据。仅通过该表格即可运行MaxEnt，但本研究并未采用此方式完成模型运行。除精确位置信息外，本次附带的数据涵盖了本研究分析所用的全部数据集，以及分析运行所需的全部代码。部分代码缺失的原因是本研究分析存在非代码类环节：例如，我们通过MaxEnt图形用户界面（GUI）运行了模型，因此未保留用于构建MaxEnt模型的代码。若需获取包含精确位置信息的完整数据集，可联系Lisa "Cali" Crampton，邮箱为[e-mail]。
