Effect of Roadside Vegetation Cutting on Moose Browsing

These datafiles are used in analyses contained in the manuscript Tanner, A.L., and Leroux, S.J. [submitted]. Effect of Roadside Vegetation Cutting on Moose Browsing. These data include information on the amount of moose browse on vegetation in roadside areas on the Avalon Peninsula and central Newfoundland, Canada as well as biophysical features associated with the areas. The file also includes information on the proportion of plants browsed by moose in order to determine what species were considered preferred or high quality by moose in Newfoundland. This file also contains the R code that we used to conduct the analysis as well as for the creation of figures for the manuscript. We have included comments throughout the code in order to understand the operations being performed. When importing a new dataset (either: vegdataperplantspp.csv, vegdataplantswilcox.csv, vegdatacorr.csv, or vegdataplants.csv) while running the R code, be sure to set the Please read Metadata file carefully before using any of this data.

本数据集文件用于Tanner, A.L.与Leroux, S.J.已提交的学术手稿《路边植被修剪对驼鹿（moose）取食的影响》中的分析工作。
数据集涵盖加拿大阿瓦隆半岛（Avalon Peninsula）及纽芬兰（Newfoundland）中部路边区域内驼鹿啃食植被的相关数据，以及对应区域的生物物理特征信息。
此外，数据集还收录了驼鹿啃食植物的比例数据，用于判定纽芬兰地区驼鹿偏好或视为优质的植物物种。
本数据集同时包含本次分析所用的R代码，以及用于生成手稿配图的代码。
代码中全程添加了注释，以便理解各操作步骤。
运行R代码导入新数据集（包括vegdataperplantspp.csv、vegdataplantswilcox.csv、vegdatacorr.csv与vegdataplants.csv）时，请务必在使用本数据集前仔细阅读元数据文件。
