Data for tests of the NicheMapR transient heat budget modelling code

This data set and code is used to test the ability of the transient heat budget modelling code in the R package NicheMapR (functions 'onelump_var', 'twolump' and 'trans_behav') against inanimate objects (fruit, pipes) and real lizards (a small and a large lizard who's activity and body temperatures were observed on the same day at an arid locality in central Australia). It generates the figures and statistics reported as supplementary information for the paper: Kearney, M. R. et al. 2020. Modeling the joint effects of body size and microclimate on heat budgets and foraging opportunities of ectotherms. - Methods in Ecology and Evolution in press. See the latter paper for more details. To run the code the package NicheMapR must be installed.
