Virginia Scenic Rivers - Fish Habitat Model Data

These are the data and code used in the Biological Conservation (2021, 263: 109357) article "Do fishes enjoy the view? A MaxEnt assessment of fish habitat suitability within scenic rivers".

The data can be used to recreate each of the 33 fish species distribution models from the Virginia Scenic Rivers Program study. All data are combined in a single zipped file and include:

1.) The raw fish presence data, environmental covariate data, and Virginia Scenic Rivers data needed to recreate the fish models.

2.) Separate Results folders for each of the 33 fish species. These Results folders include MaxEnt .html reports, summaries of MaxEnt cross-validation results, area of overlap (kernel density functions) and Mann-Whitney test results, and R scripts to reproduce all model building and data analysis procedures.

3.) A merged table of model-predicted habitat suitability values for all 33 fish species ("Appendix D").
