Dataset of habitat quality does not predict animal population abundance on frequently disturbed landscapes

The data presented here are related to the research article entitled "Habitat quality does not predict animal population abundance on frequently disturbed landscapes". Using an individual-based model, we simulated movement of theoretical individuals in a dynamically disturbed landscape and quantified the error of predicting population spatial relative abundance using an habitat model. This dataset provides the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) as prediction error measure obtained in simulations with varying individual step length and disturbance frequency.
