bioXgeo / neotropical_plants

A repository of code for compiling and analyzing functional traits of plants in the Neotropics. This repository is related to the bioXgeo/neotropical_frugivores repository which compiles neotropical frugivore functional traits.

Code & Workflow

This repository contains R code and the accompanying workflow for compiling occurrence and trait data for plants and frugivores (mammals and birds exhibiting frugivory), cleaning and subsetting data, and calculating the taxonomic and functional diversity of plants and frugivores.
