Oophaga-pumilio-in-cacao-data

This file contains data associated with an 18-month demographic study of the Strawberry Poison Frog (Oophaga pumilio) from an abandoned cacao plantation in northeastern Costa Rica. During the study, four replicate plots were repeatedly visited during each month and surveyed for frogs. During surveys, each frog observed was then captured, identified to sex, measured, marked uniquely, and then released. The first tab describes the number of surveys made in plots, how many individuals were observed, and what proportion were new individuals/recaptures from previous surveys. The second tab contains data describing observations of each frogs made during the surveys (individual mark, sex, size, location). The third tab contains information about habitat within plots. The fourth tab contains information about how the grid system was organized in plots.
