giovannistrona/oil-palm-primates: code for: Small room for compromise between oil palm cultivation and primate conservation in Africa

This repository includes the Python and R code associated to the following paper:

Strona G., S. D. Stringer, G. Vieilledent, Z. Szantoi, J. Garcia-Ulloa, S. Wich. Small room for compromise between oil palm cultivation and primate conservation in Africa.

Description

The code permits the full replication of all the analyses in the paper, as well as the reproduction of all figures (including the supplementary one). Analyses and map plotting are performed by the Python script script_oil_palm_primates.py, while the R code in make_plots.R permits the reproduction of the other graphs. Note that the R code is called by the Python script, so the execution of the latter is enough for complete analysis replication.

Input data

All the raw input files necessary to run the analyses can be downloaded from Zenodo [DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1200255].

It is important that all the input files (which are provided in a single compressed zipped archive named INPUT_DATA.zip) are left in their relative position within their folder once this one is unzipped, and that both script_oil_palm_primates.py and make_plots.R are copied in that same folder. At that point, running (from within the folder) the script_oil_palm_primates.py will perform all the analyses and generate all the output files.

Output data

All the expected output can be downloaded from Zenodo [DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1200265].
