Description
The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and abundances in ecological assemblages through time. The database consists of 11 tables; one raw data table plus ten related meta data tables. For further information please see our associated data paper.
This data consists of several elements:
- BioTIMESQL_11_07_2017.sql - an SQL file for the full public version of BioTIME which can be imported into any mySQL database.
- BioTIMEQuery_06_07_2017.csv - data file, although too large to view in Excel, this can be read into several software applications such as R or various database packages.
- BioTIMEMetadata_11_07_2017.csv - file containing the meta data for all studies.
- BioTIMECitations_11_07_2017.csv - file containing the citation list for all studies.
- InteractingWithBioTIME.html - a brief tutorial on using BioTIME in the form of an r markdown HTML page.
