Data: Intensive farming drives long-term shifts in avian community composition

Two community datasets from Hendershot et al. 2020 Nature.<br>DOI: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-020-2090-6<br>1. ChaoRich_MeanAnnualCounts.csvThis file contains Chao estimated species richness at each transect in each year.<br>Variable DescriptionTransect: Sampling location. N = 44. Four transects were dropped from analyses due to extensive changes to land management, and are not included here..<b>Year: </b>Sampling year<b>Chao: </b>Chao estimated species richness derived from 6 within-year transect counts.<b>Mean_Annual_Counts: </b>Average of dry and wet season counts.<b>Region: </b>Study Region.<b>Land_Use: </b>Land cover classification<br>2. BrayCurtis.csvThis file contains temporal Bray-Curtis Similarities in community composition within each transect from 2000-2017.The first year of the study (2000) is used as the baseline.Bray Curtis similarity was calculated between 2000 and each subsequent year to measure directional change in community composition.<br><b>Variable Description</b>Transect: Sampling location.
