dat_Trait: Trait values per year per study in the PRCS dataset

In radchukv/adRes: Assessing Whether Phenotypic Changes in Response to Climate are Adaptive

Description

A dataset containing yearly trait values for each study. This dataset contains only studies that also have selection data, i.e. PRCS ('Phenotypic Responses to Climate with Selection data') dataset. Other attributes of the data represent study-specific meta-data.

Format

A data frame with 1276 rows and 44 columns:
