Description
Summary:This datafile contains the species richness and environmental data used by Grecian et al. to examine the drivers of seabird species richness in the Canary Current Large Marine Ecosystem. Species richness data was calculated across a network of 200 km tessellated hexagons; the Cartesian x and y coordinates of these are in the first two columns. The following columns include Species Richness; average sea surface temperature; average chlorophyll a; and a measure of null usage. The data were analysed using a GAM with a soap film smoother.
