Data source

Source of all used raw data is: Bayerisches Landesamt für Umwelt, www.lfu.bayern.de (Published under Licence CC BY 4.0).

Structure of research compendium

• data-raw/: Raw datasets for biotic and abiotic data and R code to generate data in preparation files data/
• data/: Cleaned data used for the analysis
• analysis/: R code in .Rmd files to reproduce tables, figures and analysis of main file and Supplementary material
• R/: ggplot theme to reproduce layout of plots

How to reproduce the results

Install the package

To install the package in R follow this code:

#install.packages("devtools") # install devtools if you don't have it already
devtools::install_github("https://github.com/AnneLew/Lewerentz-etal_2021_Macrophytes-DDG")
library("MacrophytesDDG")

Run R scripts

To reproduce the results run the R scripts in the following order:

| Order | Script Name | Description | |-------|--------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | 1 | data-raw/DATASET.R | Preparation of Community table for submerged macrophytes (Makroph_comm_S; Makroph) and Calculation of mean annual values for selected physical chemical measurements (Chem.Mean.YearDF) | | 2 | data-raw/DATASETPrep.R | Calcuation of Biodiversity metrices & Depth diversity gradient matrices; Output datasets: MakrophS_ALL; Makroph_Lake_DepthS; Makroph_Depth; Makroph_Lake_ALL; PEAK; Chem_uniform_LOIx; PEAK_Chem_norm | | 3 | analysis/analysis.Rmd | Reproduces figures, tables and analysis used in main manuscript | | 4 | analysis/SupplementaryMaterial.Rmd | Reproduces figures, tables and analysis shown in SupplementaryMaterial |
