Read me file for Waraniak JM, Fischer JDL, Purcell K, Mushet DM, Stockwell CA, ms. Landscape genetics reveal broad and fine scale population structure due to landscape features and climate history in the northern leopard frog (Rana pipiens) in North Dakota. This read me file describes the datasets and R code included in the species distribution modeling outlined in the above manuscript. For any further queries, contact Justin Waraniak (jmwara@umich.edu). R._pipiens_records-2965a1e1a3034dcca2186fd124c90386.txt Format: Tab-delimited text All records of northern leopard frog observations and specimens from the VertNet database (http://portal.vertnet.org/search) search for ÒRana pipiensÓ. For full description of all columns, go to above link. Specific columns used in analysis are described below. Each row describes a separate observation. Decimallongitude = decimal degree coordinates for longitude position of a record. Decimallatitude = decimal degree coordinates for latitude position of a record. Country = country of origin for each record. Stateprovince = lower political classification of origin within the nation of origin for each record. Isfossil = whether or not a record is a fossil specimen of the organism Wascaptive = whether or not a record is from a captive specimen of the organism Geodeticdatum = the datum used to calculate the decimal degrees reported for the location coordinates. Waraniak_Rana_pipiens_species_distribution_model.R Format: R Code Contains R Code for building the species distribution model and mapping model outputs to current and paleoclimate scenarios as described in the above manuscript. Additional climate data is accessed from the WorldClim database. More information about the bioclimatic variables used to build the species distribution model can be found by following this link: http://www.worldclim.org/.
