01_harmonize.R
-- Accepts all raw data files (from "data" folder in Google Drive) and uses a column key method (see?ltertools::harmonize
) to combine them into a single, standardized data table- Performs some minor wrangling necessary for coalescing synonymous columns / etc.
02_quality-control.R
-- Performs more involved quality control (QC) and metric calculation03_filter.R
-- Filters out rows/columns that made sense to harmonize & tidy but are likely not useful for (the current) analysis04_zero-fill.R
-- Zero fills community data (necessary due to betadispersion calculation requirements)05-A_calc-beta.R
-- Calculate beta dispersion at various spatial/temporal scales05-B_calc-gamma.R
-- Calculate gamma richness for each experiment/dataset06_calc-mean-beta-diff.R
-- Summarize beta dispersion within experiments and calculate difference between mean caged beta dispersion and mean uncaged beta dispersion07_attach-metadata.R
-- Attach site-level metadata collated by group members. Also integrates beta dispersion, gamma richness, and mean difference in beta dispersion (produced by05-A
,05-B
, and06
respectively)
