• Create separate variables indicating whether fruit and fruit and flowers were present

• Calculate plant volume as a cone, cylinder, and elliptic cylinder

• Determine if an insect species was ever detected during the study period

• Rename species levels ("Opuntia stricta" instead of "stricta" and "Opuntia pusilla" instead of "pusilla")

• Make new insect variables with "yes"/"no" values instead of 0/1, named "C_cactorum" and "M_prodenialis"

• format the variables "ClusterID", "Network", "Island", "Species", "DemographicSurvey", "FecundityYear", "Year", "Season", "C_cactorum", "M_prodenialis" as factors
