Earthworms as a hub between environmental variation and ecosystem functioning in mountains

Description of the data and file structure File1: GOURY_et_al_GEB_data_motus.csv Description: This file contains the number of earthworm reads for each MOTU used to calculate earthworm diversity at each site. Columns:codeplot_ID: ID of each siteOthers columns corresponds to a single MOTUs. File2: GOURY_et_al_GEB_environmental.csv Description: This file contains the environmental features for each site that have been used in the SEMs. Columns:codeplot_ID: ID of each sitemat: Mean annual Temperature (axis PCA on climate variables)gdd: Growing degree days (axis PCA on climate variables)fdd: Freezing degree days (axis PCA on climate variables)som: Soil organic matter (axis PCA on soil variables)phys: Soil physical features (axis PCA on soil variables e.g. coarse element, bulk density, sand etc..)chem: Soil chemical features (axis PCA on soil variables e.g. pH)sla: PCA axis dominated by SLA and LDMC (see PCA on trait variables)height: PCA axis dominated by height (see PCA on trait variables)alpha_bota: Plant alpha diversityrichness_bota: Plant richnessalpha_earthworm: Earthworm alpha diversitystock_C: Carbon stockndvi.int: Normalized difference vegetation indexeea_tot: Total enzymatic activityeea_c: Carbon related enzymatic activityeea_n: Nitrogen related enzymatic activitytype: Vegetation type (i.e. forest, grassland) All PCAs can be found in the appendix of the paper. \File3: \GOURY_GEB.Rmd Description: This file contains the R code to run the structural model and to create the Figure 4 and Figure 5 using the File2.
