Trophically integrated ecometric models as tools for demonstrating spatial and temporal functional changes in mammal communities: Dataset

1. R code file for analyses in Short et al. <br> 2. zipped folder that includes all data files necessary to recreate our work. <br> a. "continents" is a shapefile of continental polygons, excluding Antarctica. <br> b. "geography" is a shapefile of species ranges from IUCN. This file has been restricted to extant (presence = 1), native or reintroduced (origin = 1 | 2), Carnivora (family = Carnivora) and Artiodactyla (family = Cetartiodactyla). This file contains an extra column (MSWbinom) to relate the IUCN taxonomy to the the Mammal Species of the World taxonomy used in the trait data. <br> c. "points" is a csv file of global 50 km points that contains Matthews vegetation cover at each point. <br> d. "traits" is a csv file of gear ratio measures. <br> e. "traits_fulldata" is a csv file of the raw data used to calculate species-level gear ratio values. This file is not referenced in the code. <br> f. "fossils_ecometrics" is a csv file with community-level trait data for five fossil sites from Neotoma Database. <br> f. "o", "oArt", and "oCarn" are spatial objects that can be read in by the code. These files contain the species lists at each sampling point. <br> g. "metadata" is an Excel file that includes details about the data in "points," "traits," and "fossils_ecometrics." <br> <br>
