Description

We combined participatory science data and museum records to understand long-term changes in occupancy for 29 ant species in Denmark over 119 years. Bayesian occupancy modelling indicated change in occupancy for 15 species: five increased, four declined and six showed fluctuating trends. We consider how trends may have been influenced by life-history and habitat changes. Our results build on an emerging picture that biodiversity change in insects is more complex than implied by the simple insect decline narrative.

Notes

The combined, cleaned dataset is uploaded as Dataset.csv.

The scripts zipfile contains the R code used to run the analysis.

The analysis_outout zipfile contains files needed to run the analysis and produce the figures.

The results zipfile contains the results of the occupancy models.
