A synthesis of the effects of livestock grazing on biodiversity from studies across the world

There are two files that contain the information extracted from each study. The first file contains all the meta-data associated with each study, such as the author names, article title, and general information about the study (e.g. GPS coordinates, livestock species). The second file has all the information extracted from the studies including the responding species, different sites, and effect estimates. We found from this meta-analysis that livestock negatively affected animals both for abundance and diversity. Details about the study and trends can be found in the published study in Ecology Letters. All code used to extract and analyze the data can be found at the GitHub repository.

本数据集包含两份从各项研究中提取得到的信息文件。第一份文件收录了每项研究关联的全部元数据（meta-data），包括作者姓名、论文标题，以及研究的基本概况（如GPS坐标、畜禽物种等）。第二份文件则涵盖从各项研究中提取的全部信息，包含响应物种、不同采样位点以及效应量估算结果。本次元分析结果显示，畜禽活动对动物类群的丰度与多样性均产生了负面影响。有关本研究与相关趋势的详细内容，可查阅发表于《Ecology Letters》的正式学术论文。所有用于数据提取与分析的代码，均可在本项目对应的GitHub代码仓库中获取。
