compadredb's Introduction

com(p)adreDB

This repository contains code for the COMPADRE Plant Matrix Database and COMADRE Animal Matrix Database. It will evolve into an R package but will initially contain scripts for interacting with the COMPADRE and COMADRE databases which are released as structured R list objects.

The data can be downloaded from www.compadre-db.org, or www.comadre-db.org. Follow news at our blog https://compadredb.wordpress.com, and our Twitter accounts @compadreDB @comadreDB.

         |
         |-- mat {list with one entry for each row of metadata}
         |     |
         |     +-- matA {matrix}
         |     +-- matU {matrix}
         |     +-- matF {matrix}
         |     \-- matC {matrix}
         |
