Analyses of "Ramp traps versus pitfall traps for collecting epigeal arthropods: a case study in a coniferous forest in Southwest Finland"

Analyses for our article on the relative performance of pitfall traps and ramp traps in catching arthropods. (link to article to come)

Contains:

• The R code used to draw figures and test for differences between trap types.
• The data.
• The figures drawn by the code:
  • Barplots of every taxa that showed significant differences between trap types, sampling periods or trap groups. Barplots show the number of individuals caught in each trap, with traps sorted by trap type, period, or group (whichever was significant).

To run the code, you need R, the package mvabund (installation instructions in analysis.r), and also need to set the working directory to wherever the script is on your computer (see first line of code in analysis.r).
