Clarity #2

Open nmtarr opened 6 years ago

nmtarr commented 6 years ago

Are the objectives, methods, results, and conclusions clear enough?

albenson-usgs commented 5 years ago

I think Table 2 would be clearer and it would make it easier to see the differences if the table was ordered by Summer % high -> low instead of alphabetically. Would it also make more sense to combine Summer and Winter? Are we learning something important by having these separate?

albenson-usgs commented 5 years ago

There needs to be a better explanation of how one and two are different in the "Protection of SEWW ecological systems and species" section. Why aren't these the same? Or are they?

albenson-usgs commented 5 years ago

I think Table 4 should be ordered by Protected % low -> high so a manager could easily see the priority species and if Table 2 is reordered as I suggested above then a user would already have a place to see the kind of information that's displayed in Table 4.

In terms of code, it might be valuable to add "one liners" in the README file on the functions of each python script. Currently, there are many scripts . It would be easier to understand the overall code process if the number of scripts were reduced, perhaps simplified by a few key processes.
