Data, Metadata, R-codes and R data files for submission of Bartzke et. al to Ecological Applications

These files include the data, metadata, R-codes and R data files for modelling of ungulate diversity and biomass in the Maasai Mara ecosystem in Kenya in the drought year of 1999 and the normal rainfall year of 2002. "Metadata.pdf": metadata for files "mc_333m.csv" and "mc_1km.csv" "mc_333m.csv": data file for 333 m-by-333 m sub-blocks "prepare_data.r": R code to impute missing vegetation records in 333 m-by-333 m sub-blocks and to summarize the data over 1 km-by-1 km blocks for analysis "krige_vegetation.RData": R data files containing the imputed vegetation records "mc_1km.csv": data file for 1 km-by-1 km blocks for analysis "mc_1km.r ": R code for modelling ungulate diversity and biomass "mc_1km.RData": R data file containing the predictions of models of ungulate diversity and biomass "mc_1km_plots.r": R code for plotting the predictions of ungulate diversity and biomass models "MMNR_boundary.shp" Shapefile and associated files of the Maasai Mara National Reserve boundary in Kenya for plots of the predictions of ungulate diversity and biomass "MMNR_border.zip" Shapefile and associated files of the Maasai Mara National Reserve border to Tanzania for plots of the predictions of ungulate diversity and biomass
