Data and code for analysis of spatiotemporal variation in traits and environmental variables in European hole-nesting passerines
Files: trait_data.csv – a comma-delimited file with population-specific annual fitness-related trait data. Traits included: laying date (LD, laying date of the first egg, where 1 = April 1st), clutch size (CS, number of eggs) and fledgling number (FN, number of nestlings 13-16 days after hatching)....

Summary: | Files: trait_data.csv – a comma-delimited file with population-specific annual fitness-related trait data. Traits included: laying date (LD, laying date of the first egg, where 1 = April 1st), clutch size (CS, number of eggs) and fledgling number (FN, number of nestlings 13-16 days after hatching). Annual values for these traits were based on data from individual broods that were not subjected to experimental manipulations (e.g. clutch size manipulation or cross-fostering). Fledgling numbers were based on broods with at least one fledgling.-- location_data.csv – a comma-delimited file with latitude and longitude (in decimal degrees) for all 44 locations.-- climate_data.csv – a comma-delimited file with location-specific annual climate data. Climate variables included: North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) index, mean temperature (in degrees Celsius) and mean precipitation (in mm). For each climate variable, we give the average over daily values in February-May.-- data_information.csv – a comma-delimited file with a supplementary table on data owners and geographical information per location, study length per population, and sample sizes per trait, species, and location.-- analysis.R - an R file with code to run analyses of temporal variation in trait values, effects of climate variables on trait values, and spatial synchrony in trait values.-- Climate data sources: Daily NAO-indices were extracted from the Climate Prediction Center of the National Weather Service (https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov).-- Daily mean temperature and mean precipitation were extracted from the E-OBS gridded dataset version 20.0e (Cornes et al. 2018, DOI:10.1029/2017JD028200).-- Daily mean precipitation for Vlieland (Loc: VLI) was extracted from a Royal Dutch Meteorological Institute (KNMI) weather station (Oost-Vlieland; https://www.knmi.nl/nederland-nu/klimatologie/monv/reeksen).-- See README.docx for more detail. Annual trait data, location information, and climate data from 86 populations of blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus, n = 31), great ... |
