DAISIE datalist object including bird phylogenetic data and physical data for 41 archipelagos

Description

A datalist with 41 items representing the 41 archipelagos. Each archipelago can be called separately using archipelagos41[[x]] with x being a number between 1 and 41 Using archipelagos41[[x]][[1]] will show just the top part of the archipelago item where the archipelago name and physical features are displayed. The structure of each of the archipelagos is the same as regular DAISIE datalist generated using DAISIE::DAISIE_dataprep().

Usage

archipelagos41_paleo

Format

A datalist containing data on 41 of the 41 archipelagos studied in Valente et al 2020 (Main Dataset D1). Contains colonisation and branching times for bird species in each of the archipelagos. It also contains information on archipelago name, area, age and distance from the nearest mainland. Unlike the dataset used in the Valente et al 2020 study, the area of each archipelago here refers to the estimated archipelago area 16kya obtained from the PIAC database (Norder et al 2017).
