Santangeli et al. Mixed effects of protected areas on terrestrial and freshwater biodiversity. Data & scripts.

This zipped folder includes all data and the scripts to replicate the analyses from the study by Santangeli et al. <em>Mixed effects of protected areas on terrestrial and freshwater biodiversity.</em> Specifically, we include in the main folder the script (R file, suitable for R software - "<strong>SiteMatchingBirdExample</strong>") and site level data ("<strong>BirdData.csv</strong>") used to run the matching analyses of protected and unportected sites (data and script provided for the birds data only due to data ownership agreements). This example is easily applicable to the other three taxonomic groups. We also include the data and scripts to run the Joint Species Distribution Modeling on the occurrence data separately for each of the four taxonomic groups studied in the folder "<em>HMSC_models</em>". Here the user will find four separate sub-folders, each including in turn a folder named <strong>data </strong>which hosts the occurrence data from sites selected after matching for that taxon (CSV file named <strong>SXY,</strong> includes also site level information), as well as a script file (named e.g. <em>birds_HMSC </em>in the case of birds folder) that can be used to replicate the joint species distribution model on that specific taxonomic group.
