Script for setting macroalgal and invertebrates HMSC models

We provide here a R-script and raw data files for setting both HMSC models, i.e., macroalgal and invertebrates. The obligatory data for HMSC-analyses includes a matrix of species occurrences (Y_algae and Y_invr, respectively) and a matrix of environmental covariates (X-Data). Additional and optional data include information about macroalgae and invertebrates traits (TrData_algae and TrData_invr, respectively) as well as phylogenetic relationships (my.taxonomy_algae and my taxonomy_invr, respectively), and information about the spatiotemporal context of the sampling design (studyDesing).
