Endemics of Balkan high-mountain fens: selected data and script
Abstract
This package presents selected data and an R script for the paper "Plant endemism of the Balkan high-mountain fens: a community-level synthesis and their climate change perspective" (under review). For this study, we compiled an original dataset of wetland vegetation-plot data across nine countries where Balkan endemics and subendemics occur. We tested the diversity patterns for endemics, non-endemic habitat specialists of bryophytes and vascular plants, and matrix-derived taxa with respect to climatic, palaeoclimatic, edaphic, and topographic factors. The package contains: a) data on environmental predictors used for Spearman correlations, Spatial Autoregressive Models, Canonical Correspondence Analysis, and Principal Component Analysis: b) species by sample matrix used for Canonical Correspondence Analysis: c) R script used for SARerr modelling:
