A comparison of the functional richness between 3 bird families found in both tropical and temperate environments. Families include: Trochilidae (Humingbirds), Tyrannidae (Tyrant-flycatchers), and Accipitridae (Hawks, Eagles).
To do: Find the data for the three families on BirdLife.org, individually for Panama and North America Aggregate a dataset for region Add a column that indicates the region Join all the data together into one dataframe
get data
07/31-08/01 manipulate data
put data into mfd get functional richness for each species
08/02 boxplot and scatter plot analysis of visualization and a conclusion why do we see this ditribution, what influences spcies richness in the tropics
08/03 ask cristina if it needs to be recorded, time to make slides and record if yes
