Case study - Latitudonal gradient analysis #44

Open Tasilee opened 6 years ago

Tasilee commented 6 years ago

Question: How do the four summary measures of 'biodiversity' that are updated monthly vary across latitude in Australia (land/terrestrial)? The summary layers are

  1. Occurrence density
  2. Species richness
  3. Shannon's divesity
  4. Endemism

Strategy: Generate a grid of points and intersect these with the four summary layers, sum across longitudes and graph against latitude.
