Zoo Hotspots
Summary
This project uses community science observations of butterflies to compare biodiversity in zoological parks to that of surrounding urban areas in the southwestern United States of America. It uses two measures, species richness and Shannon's Index of diversity, along with bootstrapping replicates to illustrate how relatively small zoological parks serve as biodiversity hotspots for urban areas.
Dependencies
The data downloads, analyses, and visualization are written in R and use the following additional R packages:
- dplyr: general data wrangling
- extrafont: use of Arial font in plots
- ggplot2: data visualization
- ggpubr: multi-panel plots
- osmdata: querying OpenStreetMaps for city boundaries
- rgbif: downloading data from GBIF
- sf: point filtering of city observations (with osmdata)
- stringr: text formatting in data visualization
- tidyr: general data wrangling
Project organization
R scripts for data downloads, analysis, and visualization are included in the top-level folder. Additional folders and contents are:
- data: information about gardens (coordinate bounding boxes, cities) and
rainfall for corresponding cities
- gbif: community science records for gardens and cities downloaded from GBIF; dataset record 10.15468/dd.uqf3vw
- functions: utility function to help with pageination during GBIF downloads
- output: plots and output tables; most files are not under version control
